Do you think the more ad hominems you throw around the more sound your argument(or lack there-of)? You are genuinely sad, anyone who sees how much you defend facebook would think you are part of it’s board of directors

I think you are just trolling, there is no way any human with real views and opinions would think like you so i will just close this off, have a good day.

Deranged? you know i saw your first reply before you edited it and sheesh you are raging, you work at facebook or something? Man’s acting like i insulted his whole bloodline😂

VR would have naturally developed a Quest 2 when it needed to and could, it’d also be a lot more organic, open and have a ton more & better games and a lot more competition incentivizing devs to improve, you act like a multi billion dollar company annexing the market and buying everything is the only way forward

>this just in, political ads help politicians win elections

Your uncaring attitude towards one of the biggest companies in the world admitting to have conducted the biggest psyop in history is concerning, your even more uncaring attitude towards the most powerful person in the VR industry being the same one that lead advertising for Facebook and personally overseen the massive psyop that helped trump win is the only thing in here that can be called deranged

Fuck no there was a big demand for VR before Facebook came, Facebook just went in and turned it from a VR industry to a Facebook industry and continuously bought and buried companies(to the point where the FTC stepped in and has been hounding their ass for more than a year over it) then killed creativity by paying the people who worked in these companies to do the absolute minimum and not innovate(When carmack left he said that Meta is bloated and inefficient), right now theyre killing off echo VR(one of the biggest multiplayer VR games) because of its “low player count in the tens of thousands”

Did you know that the guy leading Meta’s efforts in VR/AR, Andrew Bosworth, is the same guy who oversaw Facebook’s advertising efforts in 2016 and 2017? That he literally said facebook ads helped trump win? Thats the motherfucker leading the VR industry right now

Yea but its created by “meta”, I’ll skip

I’ll never forgive zuckerberg for ruining the VR market with his buying and burying of companies, he’s a narcissistic sociopathic megalomaniac with dreams of being The Architect, i hope “meta” crashes and burns.

They mean a top of the line gpu priced in the thoudands like RTX 4090 and its probably slow as hell, barely consumer-grade

A ton of AI ‘happenings’ when this should be about development

Kind of, it is not as much of a conversational partner as a real person, its responses are very… sterile and formulaic, cant see myself getting addicted to it ever

It’ll take a well-known job being fully automated to see mass shock(and maybe hysteria?), right now not a single well-known job has been automated as AI is just not creative enough to automate something that it can do(art, songwriting, etc) and knock humans out of business, people still want humans songwriters and artists

It did kind of automate poets though? Well most of them do it as a hobby so doesnt matter

Is full dive VR the endgame of civilization? Lol

You overestimate how willing people are to accept this stuff, the rejection of these technologies will mean they wont be here for a long time

I use it to generate colloquial language, my favorite quote it generated was “Locked up tighter than a pair of plumber overalls” and “Creepier than barney at a cake party”

VR in general has reached a plateau and will be on the backburner for a while, Full-Dive will require an insane number of advancements in multiple different fields(namely BCI) and a deep understanding of consciousness and how you can fool it and/or transport it into a virtual world without harming it

I dont know what might happen on the next 10 years thats too far out but i dont see FDV happening in this decade

Anything FullDive like Haptics technology is nowhere near consumer-level and the VR market has stagnated after facebook shat it up by buying up everyone and everything to help build their mobile-tier headsets then nuked their stock value, im sorry but youre gonna have to wait a long time to hear anything VR, nobody knows when just definitely not in the near term

This is gonna be the most chaotic decade in human history

It is because there is no space for VR in most people’s lives. We have computers, mobiles and consoles, that is more than enough for most people and the majority dont even have two of these and once you get one you have to constantly buy the new model that drops every year or so, people wont buy a new headset over a new phone.

Another issue is VR has zero uses outside of games, working in VR is a meme no matter how much facebook pushes it so i dont see any growth in that sector for the foreseeable future

How can i have proof for my predictions? Do you want a physical photo from the future? Or a written letter from 2030s Schwab talking about his multi billion dollar bug and pod company? You can see how likely my scenario is from reading my post and think of what we can do to prevent it from happening and whether it’s really smart to be so happy about complete automation

Question is, if not this scenario then what will you believe in? That everything will be fine and billionaires have our best interests at heart? Or are you just gonna close your eyes and ears off and hope for the best like half the people on this post?

Empty words, we can theorize about what will happen in the future and get pretty close to what would actually happen or talk about how to deal with incredibly likely scenarios, no need to close off our eyes and ears and just hope all goes well

Well i guess we need to hang this shit up on billboards because trust me 90% of the people in this world don’t know AI exists, the rest heard of how powerful it can be in movies… set in 2600 something. They’d never expect to be automated out of business in the next 5-10 years

UBI and some other safety nets for humanity need to be planted in the wide public conscience so people know what to bargain for while they can still bargain

Uh… aren’t they a bit late? AI Art is kinda over the finish line so their bowser inflation drawings aren’t of much use

I think immortality(the “living forever provided im not vaporized” kind) could never be reserved to a select few, what can be reserved to a select few is a highly advanced drone swarm armed with lasers that can vaporize a crowd of angry commoners. You understand?

I find it hard to believe that governments can keep a monopoly on violence with how powerful some families/people have been getting, there will be a divide but it wont be a mortal/immortal one its not that simple

Why would it be considered archaic? Why would people abandon romance?

How about no artificial scarcity and trading bullshit?

Just like how we dont know how the universe came to be we dont know how consciousness comes to be

You vill get ze snip and you vill be happy
