Did you give it the facts it would need to be correct? Did you tell it to stick to the facts?


No details really at all, just entered my name and told it to write a resume. I sort of expected it to be factual as most of the details are easily found on common websites, so I wasn’t expecting to find a bunch of made up (but legitimate or even probable) experience.

The problem with Apple Vision Pro is you look like an idiot wearing it.  That was the problem with Google Glass a decade ago.

Apple's new headset costs $3500, and the internet can't believe it.

Like Jeff Fahey in Lawmower Man.

We have an Oculus Rift, maybe four years old, and it’s just wild. I’ve fallen over playing with this thing, reaching for a counter that didn’t exist. Amazing tech, but super dorky gear.

I wonder what the new versions are like.

I've little doubt within a generation or so they'll be similar to what is projected for browsing the WWW for example; instead of geeky (in the case of your VR stuff) or bulky, space-hogging home computer and PC hardware in the case of web surfing, much of the technology to experience or perform those operations and engage in those activities will be embedded into us as research and development of human-machine integration marches relentlessly on.

I think of the advantage is just injected into your head or brain, that’ll be lots better than this goofy headset.

Females spend thousands or tens of thousands to look good, this thing makes everyone look like an idiot.

I spent thousands on a single fake tooth, it’s not just females. And I still don’t look good! :banana:
