What They Said

“For the last six years, aspiring influencers have tried to turn the rest of the world into content, and now recording devices are turning the world into training data.” — Jack Raines, The Prof G Pod with Scott Galloway

Raines was hosting this episode, which was about smart glasses and who gains when everyone can be recorded without knowing it. This is how he summed it up after his interview with Kyla Scanlon. He admitted he will probably keep wearing his own pair, though he is thinking twice about what he records.

For the last six years, aspiring influencers have tried to turn the rest of the world into content, and now recording devices are turning the world into training data. Don't get me wrong, I'll probably still rep my meta glasses if I can get the battery to start working again. It's been a mixed user experience so far, but I am thinking twice about what I'm willing to record and when, and also candidly, like what is the perception that people around me have of guy with meta glasses on? The vibes are probably negative. So, cool tool, good for society. I, you know, we'll see. So, my question is: what do you think? Would you wear smart glasses? Would you be comfortable with somebody wearing these around you? Text or leave us a voicemail at 201-472-3656. And if there's another story you want us to break down, send that to. I'm Jack Raines. See you next week.
