Meta Just announced Meta AI integration into Meta Quest virtual reality and mixed reality headsets. This development was quite expected, as AI has already been integrated into Ray-Ban's glasses since December, but this will allow more users to test out the various functions.

Meta gives some examples of use: Meta AI with Visionsuch as translating text, recognizing objects, or even getting advice on matching clothes. The uses are still somewhat uncertain, and it’s hard to imagine someone wearing their helmet, which remains extremely cumbersome, telling them how to dress. However, this will certainly allow Meta to improve its AI thanks to user feedback and find new uses.
While the assistant/chatbot functionality will be available on the Quest 2 and Quest 3 headsets, the functionality Meta AI with Vision It will be limited to the Quest 3. The Quest 2 cameras are black and white and simply don’t have enough image quality for this use. Meta noted that the update with its AI will be available in August in beta, but it will initially be limited to English, and only for users in the US or Canada.
