For me, the hearing assistance aspect is important.

I'd love to have subtitles for anything, or do instant translation.

Some day...

They already made AI assisted ear bugs that do "live" translation. Hearing aid have been a thing for years. If live subtitles are a thing I could see a very small group of people that would be willing to pay for that, but aside from the hearing impaired I still don't see a good value proposition in "smart" glasses.

I've never found ear buds that work for me. I need glasses for everything anyway.
