Groningse culturele sector verbiedt gebruik AI-brillen: ‘Zodat bezoekers en artiesten niet constant op hun hoede hoeven te zijn’

Over thirty cultural organizations in Groningen have implemented a ban on the use of artificial intelligence glasses within their venues. The measure is intended to ensure that visitors and artists do not need to constantly remain on their guard while attending or performing at cultural events.

The decision to ban the smart eyewear was prompted by recent incidents that occurred in Rotterdam and Utrecht. Participating organizations in Groningen instituted the prohibition in an effort to prevent smart glasses from becoming normalized in cultural spaces.
