Smart glasses are making a comeback, with big tech companies hoping these AI-powered wearables will soon become part of everyday life. But will smart glasses finally become popular, or will they fail again like before?

In this episode of Down to Business English, Skip Montreux and Dez Morgan talk about the return of smart glasses. They discuss why Google’s first smart glasses did not succeed, and how companies like Meta, Amazon, Snap Inc., and Google are trying again with new features and better technology.

  1. The reasons why smart glasses failed in the past.
  2. How AI is making smart glasses more useful.
  3. What Meta, Amazon, Snap Inc., and Google are doing in the smart glasses market.
  4. Why tech companies believe smart glasses could be the next big thing.
