Meta Unveils Ray-Ban Meta Audio, Gen-3 Glasses and Muse AI Agent at Connect 2026

The audio-only model is the tell: Meta is testing whether its glasses sell on form factor and battery life rather than camera capture, which would broaden the addressable buyer beyond early adopters. The Muse agent rollout is the more consequential piece, since a persistent assistant changes what the hardware is for and how usage gets monetized. The open question is whether an AI-first interface on lightweight frames drives daily wear, or whether the camera remains the actual draw.
