I think most important thing is calories consumed not fats and sugars, etc as it's simple the less you consume the less weight you can take on.

Having smart glasses automagically telling u how much your consuming for each meal & total caloric daily intake via audio or visually within the glasses i think would be powerful! Majority of people have no idea how much they consume and I'm betting they consume anywhere between 2000 to 6000 (heavier people) calories.

I think you are missing the point. I am saying that a smart glass or AI will be unable to tell the amount of calories with any reasonable level of accuracy because fats (oil for example) are the most calorie dense while also the most invisible in pictures. And even a tiny bit of inaccuracy in this measurement is enough to put one from a calorie deficit (losing weight) to calorie surplus (gaining weight).

Guess you are talking about eating at friends for dinner as all chain restaurants offer calorie counts and im betting up to 20% of all restaurants everywhere offer nutritional info too. If less people choose not to opt at the other 80% more will follow. If a family member cooks it you surely can know how it was prepared if you arent preparing.

As for and noted I eat out always a health-ish chains. The AI is getting the info directly from their sites, so taking a pic the AI knowing my location/what restaurant and matching it with pics restaurants post ..it will be seamless vs. having to now pull out my phone and tell GPT or take a pic.
