The Zhitong Finance App learned that Google (GOOGL.US), a subsidiary of Alphabet, said it is working to create two different types of artificial intelligence smart glasses to compete with existing Meta Platforms (META.US) models next year: one equipped with a screen, and the other focused on audio functions. The company said in a blog post on Monday that the first batch of AI glasses developed in collaboration will be launched sometime in 2026. Samsung Electronics, Warby Parker (WRBY.US), and Gentle Monster were their early hardware partners, but these companies have yet to show any final designs.
