However, the live demonstrations that Zuckerberg tried to make of the Ray-Ban Meta and Ray-Ban Meta Display, the star launch, He was passed several moments of trouble because they had in front of the audience.
Live AI, in the second generation goal Ray-Ban, does not work as expected
The first problem came with a function called Live AI who tried to demonstrate with the second generation scratch. Zuckerberg explained that Live AI is designed to offer assistance with AI in almost all aspects of the life of those who wear the finish goggles. Of course, he clarified that the function ‘It is not ready’ yetsince it cannot be executed all the time, but it can currently be used during one or two hours in a row.
To show his capabilities, Zuckerberg spoke with a chef who appeared on a screen and asked him to use the function for Prepare a Korean sauce for meat with the ingredients in front.
‘Hey, goal, starts live ai,’ said the chef, after what he asked for help to make the recipe. Live AI began to give a general description of the usual ingredients in the recipe Until the chef, visibly nervous, asked ‘What do I do first?’.
After a long pause, Live AI responded ‘You have already combined the base ingredients’. The chef repeated the petition and Live AI said ‘you have already combined the base ingredients’. The cook He tried to blame the Wi-Fian excuse that Zuckerberg repeated several times.
The presentation of Oakley Meta Vanguard, which had no live demonstrationit passed without incident, but the worst was yet to come.
Zuckerberg fails to answer a call with the Ray-Ban Meta Display
Zuckerberg took the stage with the Ray-Ban Meta Display on and the bracelet Neural Band which allows interacting with glasses by small gestures. ‘We have the slides,’ he said and after a pause added ‘and the demo live’, given the enthusiasm of the audience. ‘Let’s do it live’the goal leader was launched.
The demonstration began with a notification of the director of Meta technology, Andrew Bosworththat reached the Ray-Ban Meta Display. The public could see on a screen the same as Zuckerberg saw through the glasses. ‘Boz is writing to me,’ he said. Then he responded with subtle touches on an area and assured the public that he already reached 30 words per minute. In the messages they agreed to do A video call.
As Maker/Bootstrapper, I sincerely prefer this (real -time effort, such as when you show your beta or spear an MVP) before a vapareware video.

There the problems returned. The call tone echoed in the room while Zuckerberg tried to answer without getting it. ‘How awful. I don’t know what happened ‘he said to the public. He tried to answer a second and a third time, without achieving it. ‘This is … it happens. Let’s try a fourth time ‘again without success. The call tone was still sounding and a visibly uncomfortable Zuckerberg tried to respond for the fifth time, without success. ‘Five times. I don’t know what to say ‘said Zuckerberg before ordering to move to the next section of the presentation.
Boz then went on stage and with Zuckerberg showed how glasses could put subtitles in conversations in person. Again, A rugged startbut finally the function started and transcribed everything Zuckerberg said on the screen of Boz glasses. He added that glasses could also manage language translation into real -time text, although there was no demonstration of this.
There were no more incidents in the presentation, but surely Zuckerberg will not forget it in a long time.
