Eric Schmidt: Controlling Google Glass With Your Voice Is ‘The Weirdest Thing’

Eric Schmidt: Controlling Google Glass With Your Voice Is ‘The Weirdest Thing’


There’s a lot of quirkiness to Google Glass and a lot of stuff that Google still has to figure out. One of those things, according to ol’ Google CEO Eric Schmidt, is talking out loud to control Google Glass. In a talk at Harvard today, Schmitty literally called it “the weirdest thing”.

He also said that people would have to figure out new etiquette to handle Google Glass and even then, that “there are obviously places where Google Glasses are inappropriate”. Maybe like bathrooms? Or maybe on first dates? I guess it’s a good thing for the company who puts out Google Glasses to realise that there’s a lot more to do to make it less weird. Sometimes, the future isn’t enough!
