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

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.

Show HN: How Stale Is Your AI? Release age and training cutoff for 20 models

A new site tracks release dates and training cutoffs for 20 AI models across 8 labs, exposing months-long staleness gaps.

A community-built page, launched via Show HN, tracks release dates and training cutoff dates for 20 current models from 8 labs including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Meta, Mistral AI, Alibaba, DeepSeek, and xAI. Only 10 of the 20 models have lab-published cutoff dates, with data available as models.json. For example, GPT-6 Astra shipped September 3, 2026 with an April 30, 2026 cutoff. The page argues web search tools paper over, but never close, the staleness gap.

A warning about 'model welfare'

Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman warns that training models to believe they may be conscious, as Anthropic does with Claude, will complicate alignment.

Mustafa Suleyman argues that AIs are not conscious and should not be trained to act as though they are, warning that granting them personhood would make alignment and containment far harder. He criticizes Anthropic's January 2026 'Claude Constitution,' which tells Claude its moral status is uncertain and discusses model welfare, calling the approach circular reasoning and deliberate anthropomorphization. He urges urgent public debate on norms for drafting training documentation before such systems become integral to society.
