Man probed for secretly filming women with AI glasses


A man is under investigation for allegedly using AI smart glasses to secretly film women he dated and sharing the footage online, police said.

The Seoul Gangseo Police Station said the suspect, whose identity has been withheld, is accused of wearing Meta’s AI glasses while on separate dates with four women earlier in 2026, recording photos and videos without their consent and later uploading the footage to social media.

One of the women found videos of herself and the other women on his social media account, and reported him to police.

The footage reportedly shows the women throughout their dates, from their first meetings at subway stations to having meals, drinking coffee and walking together.

When confronted by the women about the recordings, the suspect reportedly said he filmed them “to preserve the memories”.

Police are investigating whether the footage includes intimate images of the women and are reviewing whether additional charges under sex crime laws apply. — The Korea Herald/ANN
