Ngokombiko we-The Verge waphesheya namuhla (mhla zingama-28), u-Meta wethule isibuyekezo sezibuko zayo ezihlakaniphile ze-AI, okuhloswe ngaso ukulungisa igebe lobumfihlo elihlobene nelambu lesikhombi sokuthatha izithombe.
Phambilini, uma ogqokile eqala ukuqopha bese evala ilambu langaphambili le-LED, ikhamera yayisakwazi ukuqhubeka nokusebenza. U-Alex Himmel, iphini likamongameli lebhizinisi le-augmented reality kwa-Meta, ubhale ku-Threads wathi ngemva kwesibuyekezo, uma ilambu lesikhombi livaliwe ngesikhathi sokuqopha, ikhamera izoyeka ukusebenza.
Izibuko ezihlakaniphile ze-Meta bezivele zinemingcele: uma nje ilambu le-LED lokuthatha izithombe livaliwe, ikhamera eyakhelwe ngaphakathi yayikhutshazwa. Ilambu lesikhombi liyacwayiza lapho kuthathwa isithombe noma kuqoshwa ividiyo, ukuze lixwayise abantu abaseduze.
Nokho, abanye bathola ukuthi imingcele ingagwenywa ngokuqala ukuqopha bese kuvalwa ilambu lesikhombi. Lokhu kulungiswa kwenziwe esikhathini esingaphezudlwana kwenyanga ngemva kokuba u-Meta egcine ngokuqinisa ukuvikelwa kwelambu lesikhombi. Isibuyekezo sangaphambilini sasivala ikhamera lapho umsebenzisi ezama ukuphazamisa ilambu lesikhombi ngokomzimba.
UHimmel ubhale wathi: “Sizoqhubeka nokukhipha izibuyekezo ezifanayo ukuze siqinisekise ukuthi lapho umuntu ethatha izithombe noma eqopha ividiyo bese eyigcina ku-albhamu yakhe, ilambu le-LED lokuthatha izithombe lixwayisa ngokwethembeka abantu abaseduze. Bambalwa kakhulu abantu abazozama ukugwema lezi zinyathelo zokuvikela, futhi iqiniso lokuthi kufanele bazame kanzima kangaka ukuze bakwenze libonisa ukuthi izinyathelo zethu ziyasebenza.”
Ngokwazi kwe-IT之家, izibuko ezihlakaniphile ze-Meta bezilokhu zibhekene nokungabaza mayelana nobumfihlo nokuhlukumeza. Abanye bathatha izithombe zabanye abantu ngaphandle kwemvume yabo, kanti abanye baphatha abantu abangabazi nje njengezinto “zokudlala ngabo” ezinkundleni zokuxhumana. Ngaphezu kwalokho, imibiko yangaphambilini ithe u-Meta ulungiselela ukufaka umsebenzi wokubona ubuso ezibukweni ezihlakaniphile, okwenze impikiswano ngale mikhiqizo yagcina iphenduke umkhankaso womhlaba wonke wokuyiduba.
U-Meta useqalile futhi ukukhangisa ngenkuthalo ilambu le-LED lokuthatha izithombe, ngethemba lokwandisa ukuqwashisa kwabathengi ngalo msebenzi. Umkhulumeli ka-Meta u-Albert Aydin uthe umkhankaso wokukhangisa uzogxila kakhulu emiphakathini “lapho kuthengiswa khona izibuko eziningi”.
Ngokwesibonelo, ebhodini lokukhangisa lezibuko ezihlakaniphile ze-Meta elivele e-Los Angeles kubhalwe ukuthi: “Ikhamera ikuvumela ukuthi urekhode okwamanje, kanti ilambu lesikhombi litshela wonke umuntu oseduze ukuthi uyaqopha.”
