HINGYMAJIGS, whatchamacallits, doodahs... the days of fumbling for the right word could become a thingymabob of the past.

Smart glasses are now so advanced with Al technology they can tell you exactly what you're looking at in real time.

They can even identify people. No need to go through a roll call of every family member dead or alive before you hit on the right one. The culprit will pop up on your bins as you bark at them for clogging up the plughole.

They can even tell you when your houseplants need watering, warn how many calories are in the Greggs sausage roll you're about to wolf down or how morbidly low your step count is. Anything at all. As if we didn't have enough screens, now the entirety of the internet can be delivered directly into your eyeballs.
