After accusations of selling ‘perv glasses,’ Meta prepares to sell a pair without a camera

Meta is preparing camera-less Luna smart glasses with microphones and an AI button to access its chatbot and Muse agent, per reports.

The Information reports Meta is developing Luna, a camera-free smart glasses model with six built-in microphones and a side button that activates Meta's AI chatbot and its Muse consumer agent, possibly unveiled at next week's Meta Connect event. The move follows consumer backlash over camera-equipped glasses that critics called 'perv glasses.' Meta's Reality Labs continues to post large losses despite the smart glasses line's relative market success.

Former OpenAI researcher builds an AI model that judges options instead of writing text

TypeSafe AI launches Jev, a judgment-only model built by ex-OpenAI staff that classifies inputs with 70-500 ms latency instead of generating text.

Startup TypeSafe AI, co-founded by former OpenAI researcher and InstructGPT co-author Diogo Almeida, introduced Jev, a model that scores developer-defined answer options with probabilities rather than generating free-form text. The company claims 70-500 ms responses, parallel multi-question evaluation, and $0.042 per million input tokens with free outputs, targeting request routing, sales intent scoring, and assistant guardrail checks. Benchmarks are self-built and not independently verified, the 'no hallucination' guarantee only covers output structure, and access is currently via waitlist.

How Candidates Could Use AI for Good

Schneier and Sanders argue US candidates should use AI for broad listening and voter engagement, citing Japan's Team Mirai and civic tech tools.

Schneier on Security published an essay arguing candidates in the US midterms could use AI constructively rather than only for deepfakes and one-way messaging. It highlights Japan's Team Mirai party, whose AI interviewer has gathered over 300,000 messages across 16,000 interviews and helped the party win 12 Diet seats. Other cited tools include Scotland-funded CrownShy's Comhairle, deliberation.io, MIT's Cortico, Talk to the City, and Remesh. Higher Ground Labs launched a fund targeting AI-native campaign systems.

Underwriting Superintelligence: Backing Agents you can Sue — Rune Kvist, AIUC

AIUC raised a $40 million Series A to build AIUC-1, an agent security standard backed by insurance, serving Cursor, Harvey, Lovable, and ElevenLabs.

AIUC, cofounded by former Anthropic product hire Rune Kvist, announced a $40 million Series A led by Ribbit Capital and First Harmonic. The startup builds AIUC-1, an emerging standard for agent security, safety, and reliability, stress-testing agents for jailbreaks, hallucinations, and data leaks. It pairs standards with insurance underwriting through Lloyd's of London and counts Cursor, Harvey, Lovable, and ElevenLabs among its customers. Kvist argues trust and liability, not capability, are becoming the binding constraint on AI adoption.

Political opposites unite in Washington to rein in AI

Bipartisan figures including Sanders and Bannon urge AI limits as OpenAI backs the FRONTIER Act creating the first federal AI safety framework.

At the Future of Life Institute's Pro-Human Assembly in Washington, Bernie Sanders and Steve Bannon both called for tighter AI limits, an unusual bipartisan alignment. OpenAI told Politico it supports the FRONTIER Act introduced by Representatives Jay Obernolte and Lori Trahan, which would create the first federal AI safety framework and require independent verification organizations for labs above high revenue and compute thresholds. Sanders proposed pausing data center construction, while Bannon favors a presidential executive order over legislation, and the White House opposes these measures.
