Alibaba plans to launch the smart AI glasses by the end of 2025 in China. This marks the Chinese e-commerce giant’s first foray into the product category. Alibaba stated that the Quark AI Glasses will be powered by the firm’s Qwen LLM and its advanced AI assistant called Quark. The company also said its glasses will support hands-free calling, music streaming, real-time language translation, and meeting transcription. The glasses will feature a built-in camera as well.

Quark is currently available as an app in China, and Alibaba is entering into the hardware space as a way to widely penetrate the applications. The Quark AI Glasses are a response to Meta’s smart glasses that were designed in partnership with Ray-Ban. The Chinese tech firm will also compete with another Chinese firm, Xiaomi, which launched its AI glasses about a month ago.
