Apples Vision Pro just released for a high price of $3500. You can clear your desktop, and instead view all your apps through the headset. You can simply use hand gestures, move your head or speak to do certain things.
HOW IT CHANGES SOCIETY
The main use for it is a TV. You could play a 3D movie wherever you want, with immersive features. One example is if you are watching Star Wars, it will show you key characters, the location, and some of the vehicles in the scene. Instead of having one TV, you have infinite TVs anywhere you want.
HOW IT FAILS
The Apple Vision Pro only has 2 hour battery life. How will game consoles work? What will happen if someone wants to watch with you? Apple has not fully explained its reasoning for the extremely high price. Some people fear that cybercriminals will be stronger.
"The metaverse's ultimate aim is not virtual reality, its mixed reality. Blending reality and virtual reality. Eventually the blend will be so well done, that the virtual world and real world will be indistinguishable. And the market for it is gigantic, whoever controls it will pretty much have control over your entire reality." We need to be concerned if Apple Vision Pro succeeds. We will lose control of reality and our entire life will be virtual. People thinks this brings happiness, but it actually does the opposite. We know this because its already happening with phones, and other virtual devices. We think it makes us happy but it doesn't because it is not real.
We must make sure it does not succeed. Even though it will revolutionize tech, it comes with a big cost (in both ways)
