I use ChatGPT voice mode all the time and when I did have my glasses (lost or stolen now) I called it all the time, reducing the friction for calling would be a great quality of life feature

I also have no idea they don't have location tracking like find my iPhone/airpods, seems trivial to add

I really wish Reality Labs would open up their API but with meta ai and llama I doubt that'll happen.

For open source glasses there's a few potential options, I think omi.me has an open smart glasses project.

I'm surprised no one has found a way to properly jailbreak them, it's a bit out of my wheelhouse but would be fun to try one day.

I did research into messenger bots quite awhile ago but stopped for some reason. It might of been that I couldn't trigger it with Hey Meta, but that's before I learnt how to force a friend/groupchat sync. (so might be different now)

It would definitely be better as it's quite a pain for daily use or out and about and more of a tech demo in its current state.

Great work Dillon!

As you know the current setup with langpal's API is literally just next API routes from the marketing site. Bit of a strange and hacky coupling haha.

Can't wait to see and use this!

Looks like he works at OpenAI now https://www.linkedin.com/in/suphilip/

Sick project!

Local LLMs are defo the way forward for governments and certain private companies, that was a huge blocker with making these types of products.

Haven't used ollama but I've used GPT4ALL and that has the ability to turn on a simple rest api that mimics the standard openai completions endpoint, so would be super easy!

Backstory:

I originally made a version of it at a previous job awhile ago as an innovation project but didn't get too much traction so have recreated a better version using a completely different stack.

My newer version was also originally tailored just for people looking to get a job in the Australian Public Service but have now pivoted it to big tech (as I have an interview coming up )

There are currently 2 interview modes, Problem Time Trial and Algo Kata but more to come in the future

Problem Time Trial was using questions scrapped from leetcode, thinking about it, probably a big no no so they're removed.

Vercel is by far the best DX I’ve ever used, you can just feel they know and love their customers!

It’s also quite incredible with the speed of how they listen to feedback and improve (i.e with how quickly Bun was added).

Have never used fly.io but looks interesting from their marketing

Surprisingly, really good for automating/improving the UX for various niche internal HR tools too!

Lmao Defo possible using a mixture of tavily and the Amazon api!

Just via prompt engineering, was something like:

`Using this image, estimate the nutritional information of it and output it as a JSON using this data structure: { "calories":int; "protein":int; etc... } `

I started to make an implementation of this for leet code by having a bot transcribe an Instagram live and then could send you tips.

But the latency was about 30 seconds so during an interview it wouldn't be that useful haha

No SDK to hack (yet?), bright flash, loud "shutter" sound and anti flash coverup.

I did recently try to reverse engineer the connection Instagram are doing with the glasses in order to livestream through the glasses.

However, not too familiar with trawling through decompiled APKs (also presume there's some sort of internal secret they're using too)

No worries!

Wore them everyday for 2 weeks and I actually only bought them as I thought I could make something like this (through any hacky means).

No one has noticed they're any different, especially outside as I got transition lenses so they just go into normal rayban sunglasses mode. You could have a similar effect if you wore those old "new" 3D glasses out and about.

Even colleagues had to squint.

If I do ever have a bad interaction with strangers I'll just tell them about the lengths meta have gone through to prevent bad actors. (i.e: knowing you're trying to cover up the flash).

Thanks!

Recorded on OBS, uploaded to linkedin, screen recorded on iOS then uploaded to Youtube.

Is that not a standard workflow haha (initially was just to send to 1 mate who didn't have linkedin lol)

Thanks!

I first attempted a more standard approach via a webhook hosted on Heroku linked to an fb page, which theoretically would of worked.

But, Meta has limited you to only sending messages/pictures to "real people".

I believe they have to be on your friends list for a certain amount of time too but haven't properly tested all the edge cases.

I generally just follow the "It's a drop in replacement for node" and hope the APIs I need are there. Also makes me feel like a 2023 bleeding edge blazingly fast developer which is 90% of the use case right?

They're actually good and have nearly replaced my airpods. I don't need glasses and don't live in SF so I do feel a bit pretentious though.

The potential is definitely there and I'd be very surprised if the Meta Reality Labs team haven't already added heaps of features internally and are just waiting or staggering releases.
