Maybe people with a brain injury/Alzheimer’s/face blindness/memory problems, if the tech could be integrated with glasses and make real time identifications of people you’ve met previously? But that’s a stretch. Bad people will use it to do bad things long before any good comes of it.
This, basically.
I have lots of trouble remembering people’s names. I’m usually good at recognising faces, but my brain doesn’t link the face to the rest of the person’s information. Glasses that could tell me someone’s name and maybe a few key facts would make a huge difference in my life.
