@m Far from it. I find many aspects of them terminally creepy, from the flat video screen of your eyes doing an uncanny valley, to replacing your face in video calls with a 3d cartoon, to expecting people to cover their face with them as they record their kids, so your goddamn kids can't even see your face on their birthday, other than aforementioned creepy screen projection of your eyes.

Hopefully these $3.5k #Glasshole replacements will die the same way as the original.

Someone asked me how #AppleVisionPro is not like #GoogleGlass in that it would make you a social pariah for wearing it. My gut reaction (having used Glass but not Vision Pro) is that using VP is like using a big screen computer or media center, while using Glass was like using an Apple Watch for notifications. VP’s interaction expects you to remain more or less stationary while using it, while you’re expected to move around while wearing Glass.

IOW, I feel like Vision Pro encourages you to disengage with your social context to deeply engage with the computer’s content (like when you’re working on your laptop in a Cafe), only occasionally coming back to interact with others around you; while Glass encourages you to continue to engage with your social context *but continually distracts you from it*.

I don’t think Vision Pro will lead to the #glasshole problem, unless people start wearing it during social-interaction-heavy occasions. Now, about that guy wearing it during a kid’s birthday party…

@davehodg @tobyink I have a confession: I was once a #Google #Glasshole

Reading about #Apple and its #AR #VR efforts for ‘23 onwards.

It’s high cost gecause the processing power required is ten years into the future. #Meta spends USD10b per year & has nothing to show … (Abrash reckons 20 years before processing is there, Carmack shakes his head at the 10b/yr Meta throws at it) 🤣

If they had hired Prof. #SteveMann he would have built a usable product, but as things stand this is another google #GlassHole of a product 🥸 Read and decide how bad this idea is & what apple think you will use it for:
