Step Inside the Kitchen →
Happy Wednesday! Today’s newsletter covers everything from Meta’s newest prescription smart glasses to why some students are being forced to trade their keyboards for typewriters. Let’s get to it. 😁
😬 uh oh … you keep missing it
As a PhD researcher, I study AI for a living. Every Sunday, Inside the Kitchen, I break down the AI conversations most people miss — with clear, honest insights you can actually use.
The last few Sundays, I’ve covered:
How to protect your career from AI
The under-explored threat of AI’s emotional manipulation
How to preserve genuine human connections in the AI age
… and more
It’s $4.99/month. Not nothing, I know, which is why I work hard every week to make it worth it.

🛠️ NEW AI TOOLS 🛠️
What’s up? Meta has announced its first AI glasses built for prescriptions — adding two new Ray-Ban Meta styles designed to support nearly all prescriptions.
Want the details? The new glasses are called the Ray-Ban Meta Blayzer Optics and Scriber Optics, both part of the second generation. They are built to be lighter, more adjustable, and more comfortable for people who wear glasses all day. Meta says they include flexible hinges, adjustable nose pads, and temple tips that can be fitted by an optician. Pre-orders start at $499 in the U.S. This release comes alongside software updates like hands-free nutrition tracking, WhatsApp chat summaries, silent handwriting input (which lets you write messages by moving your finger on a surface instead of speaking or typing), display recording, and expanded turn-by-turn navigation.
Why does this matter? Smart glasses are becoming more practical for everyday life, not just a tech novelty. By improving comfort, prescription support, and useful AI tools, Meta is trying to make these glasses something more people might actually wear.

What’s going on? A Cornell University instructor is having students use manual typewriters for some writing assignments to reduce AI use.
Want the details? German instructor Grit Matthias Phelps started the exercise after seeing students rely too heavily on AI and online translation tools to produce polished work they may not fully understand. Once each semester, her students write without laptops, spellcheck, or internet help. They use old manual typewriters, where every mistake is visible and every sentence takes more effort. Students have to slow down, think ahead, and sometimes ask classmates for help. The assignment also gives them a small taste of what writing and learning felt like before everything became digital.
Why should you care? Some educators are looking for ways to integrate AI into the classroom to enhance learning rather than stifle it. Others are throwing AI out the window for old-school methods. Only time will tell which method works best.
Should students be allowed to use AI in the classroom?
