TL;DR: you now need to pay a $20/month “meta premium” subscription to use a 100% offline feature that runs on your own malware-ridden smartglasses.

If you don’t subscribe, you can use the feature that is already included in the hardware that you already paid for 3 hours each month

The now-paywalled feature boosts the voice of the speaker in front of you, something that even low-end ANC earphones are doing now. 5 minutes of free usage per day is basically nothing.

    She’s visiting for a funeral and I commented something on the commercial for them, and she told me that sorry and about how she has to watch out for them now. Another loose relation is visiting and a teacher as well and I asked them about ai and got two totally different experiences. My mom’s class doesn’t require a lot of literature as it’s a low level bio class, but the loose family is teaching English to troubled youth and sees it absolutely everywhere. She started having them write one paper first day in class to get a feel for their actual writing aptitude.

      Interesting insight of course. I can’t imagine being a teacher right now, having to keep up with these things. You’re basically forced to become a techie in some ways, when before, many teachers really had no reason or need to learn tech stuff. I guess they had other cheating methods to keep up with, but man, these cheating tools are just evolving so fast these days.
