Yeah just feeding on people's fears, which in turn gives them plenty of views.

Of course, paint a bleak picture and then promote investments to weather out the bleak future

@greensabr200 yes I know, just saying that cheap devices already exist. The form factor might be the main constraint for now, plus the lack of AR seamless integration into day to day activities. When it becomes as seamless to use as a phone, there will be little reason to not ditch the phone and use exclusively an xr device

That's how you imagine it to be. In practice I have testified to the opposite, with people who were alone finding special interactions they were lacking, being able to work through their fears and disabilities, with positive impact in their irl interactions.

What we need is to push government to make it illegal to use that data. Throwing away something useful and labeling those who use it idiots is pretty stupid itself.

If you've ever watched TV you should know there's something called science fiction, which contains fictional elements that have never passed and will never come to pass.

Way too expensive? This stuff exists in the $200 range.

They seem to be moving away from that, into ads that blend in more seamlessly into the landscape you are in. Of course it will be up to individual apps how well or how poorly they do it.

It also rewards rewards youtuber to up the fear mongering, cause that stuff sells

@VisitorOf22 It's got nothing to do with any of that. It's a matter of misaligned incentives and lack of control mechanisms, which allow creators to nefariously exploit features of the human psyche to game the algorithm.

That's apple's innovation! Other headsets require you to wave your hands around - this one only requires you to slightly move 2 fingers.

@-someone-. How wise of you to bring fake things to the discussion. Do I really have to explain how two words together may have their meanings altered (even radically so) from when they are apart? Or that the notion of bringing into fictional worlds elements of history or elements of science or scientific discoveries in a way that expands, bends or otherwise distorts them? Should certainly not be difficult to understand that objects and situations in startrek are supposed to have come about through scientific developments in that fictional world. Maybe it would be kind of not such a great idea to label scifi and historical dramas simply under fake, just in case people who are fans of a specific genre ever want to search a database.

Just cause you moma said so, doesn't mean it was ever true 😂

That final remark 🤣

@mr.magoo2238 LOL you must be joking when there's quest 1's from 5 years ago at 60 dollars. Might as well start saying now that "it was always going to be the future" 🤦‍♂️ Amd let's not pretend a couple hundred dollars is a lot cause kids get gaming devices more expensive than that all the time.

@TheFroneyZone if you meet with someone using one of those you will be using one too and meeting virtually. These devices are not really meant to be taken anywhere. Devices that are, such as augmented reality raybans, tend to blend in much more. Even contact lends are being fitted with displays so there is a clear minification process going on. Regardless, its like people talking hands free looked nuts (and maybe they still do), but nobody bats an eye anymore.

@mr.magoo2238 yeah, a lot of stuff gets autoremoved. Only thing that annoys me is that Google is not upfront about the action they take and the specific reason for that action.

@johnarnold7984 That's a valid concern, consider contacting your representative and telling them how you want/don't want your data to be used.

They don't. It's mostly meta's platform that people dislike.

You wouldn't want to be a part of anything in a horror story, and yet mummies are harmless. If you are put in the middle of the woods with nothing but your own body, you might be in for a rough time too. You are just not used to that. Plus you surelly will miss positive things that you have now. Look at things with realism. Change can be scary and confusing, and to you these "novelties" might always feel like a smartphone feels to an old grandpa. Your brain might just not be capable of adapting to new things anymore. But to new generations this will be as much a part of their life as all our devices are part of ours. Instead of being disoriented by fear, try to combat actual negative aspects and benefit from the positive ones.

In many settings it's fine to use your phone and have your airpods out. Others it's not. It's not that big of a deal.

@jhgvvetyjj6589 lmao

Theres a lot of bs in this video. Eyes are the windows to the soul and this is meant to full them even by design? That you cant fall in love like this? What? That flies in the face of what is already a reality. So do claims of absolute intrusiveness as if disabling, muting and silencing notifications wasnt a thing, as if focus modes werent a thing. New technology is andl always has been a double edged sword. It is unreasonable to do away with the positives. The way foward is to mitigate the negatives. Are you concerned with the way data is and will be used? Contact your representatives and urge them to pass legislation to limit when and how this data can be used and to expand user control.
