""When the chef said 'hey Meta, start Live AI,' it started every single Meta Ray-Ban's Live AI in the building," said Bosworth. "We had routed Live AI traffic to our dev server, in theory, to isolate it, but we had done it for everyone in that building on those access points. We DDoS'd ourselves, basically.""
""The video call issue was "more obscure," according to Bosworth, and involved a "never-before-seen bug" that occurred because the Display glasses had gone to sleep at the same moment that the device received the call notification. Bosworth says that the bug has now been fixed, but acknowledged the onstage demo was a "terrible place for that bug to show up."""
A voice command unintentionally activated every Meta Ray-Ban Live AI device in the building because Live AI traffic had been routed to a development server reachable via the building's access points, effectively creating a self-inflicted DDoS. A separate video-call failure resulted from a rare bug triggered when the Display glasses entered sleep mode at the exact moment a call notification arrived; engineers have patched that bug. The live demonstration exposed real-world routing and device sleep-state failure modes and illustrated the risks and transparency trade-offs of authentic onstage product demos versus pre-recorded presentations.
