At Madrid’s Mad Cool Festival last week, singer Lorde paused her set, which was just before BLACKPINK’s Jennie’s, and denounced Meta’s AI glasses, telling the crowd, “Increasingly, in our world, it gets harder and harder to know what is real. Can I just say, for the record, fuck the glasses. Don't get the glasses. Not sexy.” This follows growing concerns about the wearable technology, which features built-in cameras, speakers, and artificial intelligence, enabling wearers to take photos or videos of others without permission. Many women have been approached by men wearing Meta's AI Ray-Bans and filmed without consent, with videos uploaded to TikTok. Despite these concerns, celebrities have promoted the tech: in April, Jennie was unveiled as a global ambassador for Ray-Ban’s Meta AI glasses, and billionaire Kylie Jenner, who has repeatedly expressed her desire for privacy, collaborated with Meta to release the Meta Starfire Kylie Edition AI glasses. Jenner stated in an ad, “We love a tech moment.” Several fans praised Lorde’s comments, with one Reddit user saying, “We have Lorde and then we have Kylie and Jennie like why are women of all people promoting and being brand ambassador of these creepy spy glasses.”
