I Tried Cooking with Smart Glasses. Here's Where They Helped the Most
- The CNET reviewer tested Solos AirGo A5 glasses for kitchen use, focusing on basic tips, a known recipe, and a new recipe.
- Conversons and ingredient ID were generally reliable, aiding tasks like boiling eggs and converting measurements.
- There were AI hallucinations, including inaccurate recipe links and extra ingredients not in the source recipe.
- The glasses struggled with timers and fractions, limiting practical use in real cooking tasks.
- The reviewer preferred using separate glasses, earbuds, and a dedicated app for reliable cooking help.
- The test concluded that smart glasses offer potential for simple tasks but are not yet dependable for finding new recipes.
- The Solos AirGo A5 was priced at about $250, making the setup accessible but with notable drawbacks.
- Voice control and display options were limited, affecting user experience during cooking tasks.
- Overall verdict: smart glasses can assist with basic cooking tasks but reliability and accuracy need improvement.
