Apple Vision Pro may be the first precursor to an actual cyberdeck worth taking seriously.
The thing that ruins VR for me is the complete isolation from my surroundings. I want to be able to bring my virtual work into the real world, and I want people to be comfortable speaking to me while I have the headset on.
I imagine working in a collaborative space with my colleagues but also other friends in other jobs in the same virtual space. On paper it sounds great.
But I worry that spending too much time in a virtual world, will rid the need for people to build and live in their spaces in the real world. I can tell that there will significant monetization of virtual furniture that will be up for sale in the digital world.
Not only will I buy furniture in the real world, but also in the virtual world, which will likely become just as important in some respects. You might not have a great office space at home, but you'll need to fork out plenty of money to access premium workspaces virtually.
If Apple (and companies) can't make money off of the chair you buy in your home study, they'll sure as hell make sure you buy one from them in the virtual world.
Most people don't want to spend a lot of time in dorky and claustrophobic goggles.
I would like to see what 3D movies or sports could look like on it though.
gargoyles won’t care about how cringe something is. (which, using cringe is… pretty cringe.)
the screen in the front is awkward for someone that uses sunglasses as a shield. no need to deride the inverse. it can likely be configured.
not that apple did nothing wrong.
but maybe not so universally relatable.
