In this privacy-focused test by Business Reform, the host evaluates the advanced microphone capabilities of Meta’s Ray-Ban smart glasses, demonstrating their ability to clearly capture and AI-transcribe casual conversations from up to 29 feet away with high accuracy—and even pick up fragments from around 40 feet. Using a Bluetooth speaker simulating normal talking volume in a coffee shop-like setting, the video reveals how easily someone could eavesdrop undetected in public. It also tests countermeasures, showing that cheap ultrasonic rodent repellents fail completely, while dedicated (and expensive) ultrasonic jammers successfully disrupt recordings enough to foil AI transcription. The piece includes legal disclaimers on recording laws and promotes privacy tools.
