Spacetop G1's laptop without a screen, the future of art, AR and VR 

lol.. I'll make sure to tone it down next time. at least it's memorable :)

@@chiu-on-this It is! Love your videos and insights Bobby ❤

Harsh much?

your kids won't care.

You don’t have to be plugged in 24 seven. You can put on the glasses when you want or at least that’s how I imagine it.

@@chiu-on-this Well, yeah, but the world you are talking about has people wearing their glasses as they walk outside. Sure, you can take them off if you want to, but you can also get off your phone if you want to. But most people don’t, because companies are specifically designing content to be as addictive as possible. AR and VR isn’t somehow going to make the people capitalizing on our attention have a change of heart. It will make they dig deeper into making things as addictive as humanly possible.

People will have to make a choice and move into “2” different directions; one group of people who prefer to stay in megacities with virtual and technological conveniences; the other group will march towards Nature where they’ll experience simplicity, sustainability, and harmony.

I recently bought Meta Quest 3 VR headset to try it out. I thought the immersion woud make want to stay more in VR space. Turns out I can't handle doing stuff in VR for more than an hour. The eyes get tired and I get slightly dizzy (though it's not as bad as I expected). In case of VR if they don't resolve that I don't see how that would make people more detached. With AR on the other hand you primarily see reality with things added on top so that wouldn't be drastically different from what we have now except you can have more possibilities of organizing your workspace. Probably as an addition to having 2d screens as in this presentation you could do 3d sculpting while actually seeing your creation in 3d. That sounds exciting.

Aw thx so much! I really appreciate that you like the intro sound :)

As someone in their 20s, it’s not your age. I think that screen addiction is a problem a lot of us are worried about and which we would like to change.

Porn is a con?

The extra problem with all this corporate ass kissing Bobby is doing is that it really plays into their game which is a constant and ever more integrated life of the individual with all its faculties, instincts and innermost thoughts being subject to the tune mega corporations play, in this case the most important being the tech companies. Consider, this brand of “AI” (cause it’s not really that, it’s just matrix multiplication and the large dataset makes the prediction of a factor more likely to be correct) never could have existed without huge datasets, which come from huge masses of data. That data was scraped off the Internet, gargantuan amounts of thought and labor of people, who over time had put it in the public or private sphere of the public space we call the Internet was taken without consent, and PRIVATIZED. This isn’t like taking a book, song or painting that’s public domain, it’s huge amounts of people’s labor, people who are alive and well, or way within the time where they and theirs still own the rights to that labor, was stolen and used for private interests in order to undermine that labor henceforth. All that happens from you searching Amazon teaching it what it is you like, to consuming images and text that dictate people’s desires and dreams. And the only reason these guys can get away with it is because there exists no Digital Bill of Rights. Why does Amazon have the right to monetize the labor YOU put into its algorithm that teaches it what people with your tastes, characteristics, income etc tend to prefer so it can advertise it to you, and you have no right to that part of labor? People can think this is small fish but that’s the mistake, it’s the amassing of collective effort to build a machine these jackals call their own and charge for it that is the way true wealth, power and control is created today, and it’s exactly the same thing that has happened with AI. And all these wet dreams of silicon worlds that people can be lost in will be generated by unpaid labor they’ve used to create the machines that will create them. The only thing the user will do is feed it with more specifics by virtue of him interacting with it, making it a very addictive thing. And all of this will be in digital spaces the techbros will own and control and in which you, me and everyone else will have absolutely no rights, not even the ability to verify that anything you do in there with anyone will actually be with anyone human. And then price to pay for this drug once people become accustomed and addicted to it will be huge, just like it’s been thus far. More people will be working hard labor since other jobs will be outsourced to AI. The pay will be less and less, and life will be more miserable. You’ll be totally fine eating bread made out of powdered worms, plastic vegetables and cardboard meat which will be advertised through your AR/VR contact lenses 24/7 as “healthy, ecological and cheap” because if real food cuts into your ability to hook online you’re gonna take a little fake food for the high of a virtual world. You won’t mind living in a small, sterilized box because the techbros are already producing that shit and throwing it in your face as the hip, modern, ecological way of living, because you won’t care as long as you can put on your AR/VR glasses and escape your sad reality for a world where you’re royalty, rich, beautiful and loved as displayed by the addiction people have to the attention they get over fake, filtered images of themselves. It’s a horror show, a Huxley/Orwell nightmare sold as convenience. And it’s naive, virtuous idiots like Bobby (who projects himself as a good guy but also as way too naive) who fall for this stuff headfirst creating the traction needed.

lol!! so true!!
