What is the population percentage of boomers, around 40%, per chance?
I’m glad you brought this up. I imagine true AI would be able to take information and actually surmise original ideas from it. LLMs simply state what is already known using natural language. A human is still necessary if any new discoveries are expected to be made with that information.
To answer OP’s question, the only thing that concerns me about “the rise of AI” is that people are convincing themselves it’s actual AI and then assuming it can make serious decisions on their behalf.
OP just doesn’t know good beer. (shrug)
I think I would still stick to the current form factor. Repairability and comfort are of greater concern to me at this stage in my life than pocketability.
FF Tactics is a VR/XR dream port of mine. I’d love to see those battle arenas set up on my coffee table, with the ability to actually move the pieces around like chess.
Why are they called gaming laptops when they don’t play the games themselves?
An argument I frequently make about using an ad blocker is that I’d be more comfortable with ads if they weren’t so thirsty for personal information. I still stand by that, and I’m not completely convinced this satisfies that concern. Personal data is still getting slurped up, but now we have the privilege of trusting it’s completely anonymized.
I’ve been in the Apple ecosystem for pretty much most of my life, and I’m all for what the AVP is bringing to the table. However, one VR enthusiast Youtuber I watched recently (Thrillseeker) put down the most compelling argument against the AVP I’ve seen thus far. The AVP does well what all the other headsets don’t, but the AVP also kind of sucks at what other headsets have learned to do well. At the price of the AVP, not only could you buy a Quest 3, but you’d have enough leftover to just build an entire VR Gaming rig to back it up. Then you’d have a setup exponentially more capable than what the AVP is offering.
