TL;DR
- Meta has capped its Conversation Focus feature on smart glasses to three hours of usage per month.
- You can pay for a $19.99/month Meta One subscription to get 15 hours of usage per month.
- Conversation Focus runs entirely on the glasses and doesn’t require an internet connection, setting a precedent for more on-device features to end up behind a paywall.
AI rate limits have become an unavoidable part of using AI tools. It’s one thing to limit cloud-based features; it’s another to limit a feature running on hardware you’ve already paid for. That’s exactly what Meta is doing with Conversation Focus.
As first reported by The Verge, the accessibility feature is now limited to three hours of use per month before users are asked to upgrade to a paid subscription.
