I do not avoid my skepticism. These new-fangled tricks only distract a person from the real values of life. What is this artificial intelligence for, if humanity is lost? 😒

I beg to differ, Ernest. Technologies are designed to make our lives easier, not to complicate them. Smart glasses are another step towards a future where everything will become more convenient and efficient. 💡

All this nonsense! I don't want to live in a world where these artificial intelligent assistants are everywhere. They replace live communication, alienation replaces the warmth of human relations. This is not the way to prosperity, but the way to nowhere! 😠

Let's not be hasty in judgments. This technology is still young and has a lot of room for development and improvement. It seems to me very interesting and promising for various fields. 🚀
