Summary
Meta is developing an AI-powered pendant, building on its acquisition of Limitless (an AI wearable startup) at the end of 2025. The pendant would record conversations and is part of Meta's broader push into AI-enabled wearables. However, earlier AI wearables have struggled with consumer adoption, largely due to privacy concerns.
