Hi, I am huge fan of AR technology and the whole future of it. I almost don’t want to spend money on anything else.
Why buy TV (even the best possible OLED one) when maybe this or next year there could be AR glasses where I can see TV anywhere I want with the biggest screen ever. Why to buy game console, if I can have console via stream in my glasses thanks to Xcloud or PS NOW/GEFORCE NOW. Why to buy computer if the cloud could be so powerful that everything I do on a computer could be done in AR glasses. Especially if they really think that first AR glasses from Apple will have M2 chip.
Everything I imagine is absolutely revolutionary in terms of technology and future. I know it can be pushed away for couple of years because it is still not ready for that kind of use. But even the theory is awesome. Traveling will be so much easier. Everything will be translated, everything will be personalised and our houses could be more ,,minimalistic“ in terms of all the boxes and technologies we have there.
But still when I watched all the videos of Mark Zuckerberg on Facebook, where he is explaining and showing their latest technology – like how easier will be cooking thanks to AR, how easy is being with the same room with family even when they live across the country or his latest video where he is showing Microsoft apps in AR/VR and new neurosystem which can move character in game thanks to ,,mind“ – which is mindblowing. It’s like – telekinesis.
I saw many comments with anger, hate and disappointed with all of this technology. Like they didn’t get it, or want it. Or if they are scared of it? Because what is to – not like about it? This is the next step. Why to have ,,every year the same type of phone“ or ,,same type of watch“ or ,,same type of TV“ when we can have this ,,next step“ in every technology.
And even if you (or them) think anything (bad) about Zuckerberg – he is currently the only one who is manifesting this technology, pushing forward by constant talking about it, showing it and also developing new technologies, system, softwares and hardware. Even if Apple will do it better or anyone else. And still I always read (even on website) like they would be happy about Meta getting down (in stocks, finance, lay-offs) thanks to heavily investing in metaverse and all this AR technology.
