    Virtual Reality? Not in the way we have it now with huge expensive glasses and special software. Thats just the first experimental phrase of the technology.

    I dont think it has a purpose yet. Maybe in the future, it will. Some killer app where VR is essential and everybody wants that app.

    Probably something related to porn. Wouldnt be surprised.

      I was making a parallel to another wildly over-hyped technology that has had multiple opportunities to make it when it’s clearly only suitable for niche usecases.

      LLMs and “AI” are not useless but the notion that they’ll lead to something significantly more advanced is fundamentally misunderstanding the nature of the technology.

        VR and Ai are competely different but I understand your perception here. It may seem to you that they are similar and then the Ai race doesnt make sense.
