Of course, it does not go much further, and above all the leader says nothing about the intentions of the search engine.
However, we can try a rapprochement with the Iris project in the making at Google, augmented reality glasses whose release would be scheduled for 2024. That is the same year as the first AR connected glasses from Meta…
