Meta will bring its AI assistant, Meta AI, to Meta Quest as an experimental feature, but only in the US and Canada.
Meta AI is already supported by Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, but only in the United States and Canada. Soon, the AI assistant will also be available as an experimental feature for Meta Quest 3 and 2, but only in English and only in North America.
Meta AI with Vision, which was introduced in April for Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, will also be part of the update, but will only be supported by Quest 3 and initially only in its pass-through mode. Virtual objects are not yet detected.
Similar to the Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, Meta AI with Vision will be able to recognize objects in the physical environment and answer questions about them in real time. So Meta Quest 3 will be able to describe objects in front of you, translate text, and much more.
Meta gives further examples in the Quest blog to illustrate how Meta AI could help: You'll be able to ask how to dress for a summer trip, get a weather forecast, or get recommendations for a local restaurant.
Meta AI will roll out to Quest devices in the U.S. and Canada in August. Meta plans to improve the feature over time.
The AI-based voice commands feature introduced years ago for Quest, which never made it out of the US and Canada, is being deprecated and replaced by Meta AI.
