Ray-Ban Meta Glasses: How to Use Live AI

Quick summary: Live AI on Ray-Ban Meta glasses keeps Meta AI running and watching through the camera. You can talk to it naturally without saying “Hey Meta” every time. You need glasses software version 15 or later.

The controls

1. Start it: say “Hey Meta, live AI on.” You’ll hear “Live AI session with video starting now.”
2. Pause it: say “Hey Meta, live AI pause.”
3. Resume it: tap the touchpad on the side.
4. Stop it: tap and hold the touchpad, or say “end session” or “Hey Meta, stop live AI.”

What it’s like to use

Once it’s on, just talk. I asked what color to paint my white walls, and it looked at the room and suggested a warm beige or soft gray to go with the light hardwood floors. I held up bananas and bread and it suggested banana bread. It identified a children’s book I was holding and then told me its ratings when I asked a follow-up.

It feels like a natural conversation, which makes it great in places like a museum, where you want to keep asking about what’s in front of you.

Keep in mind

• Live AI uses a lot more battery than regular Meta AI.
• If you don’t have it yet, you’ll get it with version 15 or later. Until then, you can still ask Meta AI questions with the wake word.
