Episode Details

AI-enabled smart glasses have moved from science fiction to everyday reality. They are now showing up in workplace break rooms, courtrooms, and city streets, and the legal framework is struggling to keep pace. Joe Lazzarotti, Jackson Lewis, examines the technology itself, tracing the arc from early wearables to today's always-on AI devices capable of real-time facial recognition, audio capture, and data aggregation. The program covers the legal landscape governing this technology, including privacy statutes, biometric data laws, employment compliance obligations, and emerging litigation. Use cases span employers monitoring workers, retailers tracking customers, and individuals recording in public and private spaces. Attendees will leave with a practical understanding of where the law currently stands and the compliance questions every attorney advising clients in this space must be prepared to answer.
