Sure thing, here you go:

So, you know Andrew “Boz” Bosworth, right? The dude who’s been around since forever with Meta, like one of those OG engineers. He scribbled down this memo, like, earlier in the year. And guess what he said? 2025 could either be Meta’s Reality Labs—yeah, the whole VR/AR shebang—getting a standing ovation, or… well, crashing and burning into one big, hilarious fail. Go figure.
Boz, man, he’s an optimist these days. But let’s be real, the market’s gonna have the final say. How dramatic, right?
Anyway—no wait, jumping the gun here—Boz mentioned to Bloomberg on a tech chat that we’re sitting on this weird, twisty-turny, probably-maybe crucial year. He’s like, “We’ll see by the end of the decade,” but honestly, he’s vibing that this year is kinda pivotal. Or maybe not. Who knows? It’s Boz.
Oh, and those Ray Ban AI glasses? Nifty little things. A bunch of folks are loving them. More than 2 million pairs sold since last October or something. Pretty impressive, if you ask me. They even blitzed traditional Ray Bans, and that’s before they even tossed in the fancy AI shenanigans. Mind-blown emoji, right?
And then there’s Google, teaming with those swanky eyewear folks, Gentle Monster and Warby Parker. All about that XR tech. Because we clearly don’t have enough smart glasses in the world. And Apple’s stirring the pot too. Might drop their version in 2026. Just wait for it.
Boz said something about shifting from some hidden fantasy land to being in the gritty real world. Competition’s ticking, he says. Progress in this year is like the golden goose. Or was it egg? Whatever metaphor works.
But hey, competition’s cute and all. If nobody’s buying Meta’s gizmos, what’s the point? Adoption is key, folks! Standardizing tech is where the magic’s at, apparently.
Boz had this tidbit from Sheryl Sandberg, the legend herself. Mentioned that companies don’t usually flop ’cause some rival outdid them. Nah, they just slip on their own banana peels. Classic. So, his plan? Keep the team’s eyes on their own paper. Execute, execute, execute.
What’s up next? They’ve got grand plans for the year, ambitious stuff. By year’s end, they’ll check the scoreboard. Five years on? That’s when they’ll see if their homework was worth the hype. Fingers crossed!
So, yeah, that’s where we are. Exciting, isn’t it?
