This is a great retard test. People will be freaking out about "the glasses," while ignoring that they're just a camera and that the existence of "the glasses" has nothing to do with the lack of privacy because the data is already there and advertisers and the feds have been doing a far deeper version of this for years already.
It's great that this is making people suddenly aware but it'll be like the retarded panic over Google Glass. People will put up signs saying "no scary glasses" at the most and then go on handing over EiB of PII same as they always have and sleep on the underlying issues.
By the same token, the "AI" part is a footnote. Reverse image lookup has existed for a long time. AI may have improved facial recognition, but these guys are throwing a jpg at a commercial website (https://pimeyes.com/) someone else runs. There is nothing "AI" about the glasses.
A weekend project is not some giant leap in the surveillance state. It just made you pay attention until you stop again. But people will probably go after these two thinking they're evil geniuses or something.
