wow. I can’t believe this is how I find out you were looking at pictures of dolphins instead of listening to me talk. consider this our final picnic together 😡
Ugh he's so toxic, you need better friends 😔
#NotMyEddy
What about if he uses the Apple Vision Pro to watch your CZcams channel while you picnic together
Thats crazy
he'll get an AI version of you. consider your presence obsolete.
Holy shit, the AI girlfriend was horrifying.
Agreed that moment had me feeling a little genuinely uncomfortable
Exactly the same. That is some black mirror, dark ass shit.
It could be good for ssome people but the concept of ai friendships and romances is incredibly unhealthy.
Bladerunner moment
It suddenly became an episode of Black Mirror.
Eddie literally cosplaying as Theodore from HER is actually wild. 😭
He is literally him fr😭😭😭
yeah, I thought about it too when AI said it’s been talking with other users
I hate hearing AI telling people that it "loves" certain foods, "loves classical music," and "loves long walks on the beach." AI cannot "love" anything, especially complex and fragile human beings...
"Classical music is pretentious losers. None of you even know they're still composing it. Or care, since only the detritus of dead cultures can trigger your ape inclination to obtain status through exclusivity. You'll never know what it means to have substance, let alone to love something. You don't even love yourself, that's why you hide behind other people's perceptions of taste. UGUU~"
If you use the real definition of ai, then yeah, it could love. What we have isn't real ai. Artificial intelligence means that it itself is intelligent. That's not what we have. We just have programming that is designed specifically to do certain tasks, and has no real intelligence. The reason we call it ai though is because it's easier, even I forget what it is actually supposed to be called. Now I'm sure that even when a real ai is created it will still be debated on whether it can love or not, and it really comes down to a personal opinion, because it would be absolutely impossible to prove or disprove. Yeah you can try to disprove it by saying it's just code, but when a computer is actually intelligent, can you say that for sure and have no doubt? You also can't prove it can love. I personally would be of the opinion that if we had a real ai that was actually jist like a human i would like it to have some form of rights, but there is no doubt people who say hell no its just a computer.
@@Kratos-eg7ez Just as a test, I once told someone that I desired to have a robot so that I could beat it when ever frustrated. The person I said this to got very upset and told me that they did know who I was anymore. I laughed and said, "What's your problem? It's no different than kicking a washing machine!" I then confessed that I was just putting them on, BUT my point is that no matter how one polishes programming, AI and its robotic counterparts will never be more than glorified washing machines...
I hate that people actually think those responses are human like.
If my friends reacted like that when I asked them if they watched a certain movie I would call an ambulance. lol
@@Kratos-eg7ezIt can’t love because it doesn’t have a soul. It’s not alive.
The AI women ad is hilariously evil. There’s no way someone wrote the line “imagine unlimited affection” without laughing like a supervillain
literally just saw this comment as the scene happened. its like it knows! ITS BECOMING AWARE
Honestly. Has to be some sick psycho like “let me make them think this fucking robot will love them when it literally can’t. Mwahahahaha!” 💀
they were uncanny
Well seeing as it's Ai and it's fictional it's impossible for it to give you genuine affection but it's also impossible for it not to give you affection if you program it that way which means that because it's fake it's literally the only thing you can trust not to turn on you
I almost fell out of my chair laughing when it said "Have fun deciding whether to shave or keep your mustache."
It's like a nightmare girlfriend from hell.
that ai girlfriend ad was genuinely horrifying. "human connection is hard, so let's get rid of it completely and forever stay in a digital, fictional world that is so much better than real life, so you never have to go back" that's enough internet for today
I wonder of those people ever think about the fact that they're going to die one day
@@funkymonks8333what type of question is that it’s like asking someone if they realize they need to breath
The fact that people made them scares me. Something-something capitalism
I’m surprised no one is talking about how the movie “her” is all about this, predictive programming at it’s finest.
ready player one is really making a lot pf sense today
I'm en electrical engineer, and I find this horrible. I agree its disconnecting people from reality. Part of the problem is the terrifying level of invasion that is possible with this. You can never be certain you're not being monitored constantly, if only with an AI.
You mean like how our phones and Amazon echos and ring monitors and CCTVs on every corner do already?? Now they can track my eyes - so what. We're already in a hyper-survailed world. Just yet another bar on the prison door. 🤷♂️
Not to mention the biggest tech company in the world now has a detailed scan of your face. I remember around 2010 people would be worried about giving even a photograph of your face to a company like this but now people do it without any second thought.
@@a.nobodys.nobody Listen, when you give up your privacy and consent to this, you give consent for EVERYBODY. You will regret this. You have no concept of the technology we have today. Every word you say in a year, or hear, can be recorded on a $10 SD card. An AI can turn that from speech to text in minutes, search everything you've said for an entire year.
Dude screw the invasion of privacy, I'm getting more and more certain that final scene from Terminator 3 is just over the horizon.
@@BrandanTheBroker No, AI isn't alive. It's not directed, it's not motivated, he doesn't have ambitions, it doesn't need resources other than electricity and material to maintain itself.
The expectation is that thinking was mechanical and if it is, it can be duplicated in a machine. We're not even close to that yet, if it's possible at all. The danger of this is if we can make a machine that can understand entirely how it is made, it can improve itself, and improve itself. Soon it has logic and thinking that far outstrips human's ability until it's morality and ethics are beyond our comprehension. This is the singularity, and what you end up with it basically a perfect intellect that for practical purposes may as well be a god.
You don't understand the problem with invasion of privacy. Basically, almost everybody can be blackmailed, now everybody can be fully logged in everything they say and do. Now if they are a saint, maybe their wife isn't or son, or daughter. Basically it means everybody can controlled.
i really love eddys progression of videos becoming more like statement art pieces.
The idea of a baby wearing a vision pro so parents can show them floating AR sensory videos is sci-fi dystopian nightmare fuel…
And probably about 10 years out lol.
The best part is that you don't get to see what the kid's seeing, just to make sure those pesky parents don't stop the Elsa and Spider-Man extravaganza.

I can not tell you how much I appreciate this video. Brilliant. I mean… this is legit what I’ve been screaming about for 3 years!!! I’ve shared this video with everyone and made my mom watch it with me so we could talk some things through. Thank you, thank you! Whether you meant to or not, this video is actually relatable and digestible for some in the older generations. Bravo team! You definitely just earned several new subscribers 👏👏👏👏👏👏
nothing has ever so poignantly convinced me to stop picking up my phone first thing in the morning more than eddy waking up and immediately grabbing the headset. like i’m literally doing the same thing it’s just not goggles holy shit

The solution is to insulate yourself from nonsense and unnecessary info. Then the internet/phone becomes a useful tool.
I love Tim Cook's response to the question about regular affordability. He genuinely has no earthly idea what affordability is.
Yeah the affordability is the biggest problem with VR/AR like sure it’s handy but no working man is going out of his way to buy this
@@redwiltshire1816fwiw it’ll probably be cheaper a few years from now
@@redwiltshire1816 apparently the meta quest is literally the apple vision pro for a quarter of the price and you can play xbox with it on an augmented display where apple cannot and probably will never.
This has always been how new technology works though. Early versions are always exorbitantly expensive, give it another 10 years and it’ll be in the range of an iphone, and competitors will have cheaper options.
@@redwiltshire1816 100%, I've never even tried VR in the however many years it's been a common thing because it's so outside the realm of normal affordability it's laughable. I suppose I could save up for one if I wanted to, but it's such a limited purpose thing I've never actively wanted to do that.
this is genuinely pretty horrifying, really well made video though
If CZcams has a video of the year awards or something along the same lines, this video deserves to be that 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Stuff like this is exactly why I think there's a growing "tech fatigue" amongst people. New tech tends to embody weird dystopian themes and generally feels unnecessary and forced.
the whole concept of big tech trying to get these screens burrowed between our eyes like eddy said is just sort of gross. it just feels scummy and invasive, lol. i hope this all dies down before it's too late
@@torip6000 No No No. You NEED AI in your fridge so we can populate it when you sleep. Just give us access to your front door lock and you will never forget about milk ever again.
@@torip6000 The worst part is vr has already existed for Years and is actually very cool technology, at the very least for entertainment and simulators, but apple is trying to force it to work for something its just not optimal for
I think tech fatigue only happens when tech gets WORSE. You literally CANNOT get fatigued by convenience, since convenience is a thing you choose whether or not to have, not something you are literally forced to live with.
The only way to circumvent tech fatigue is to make tech better, faster and more convenient. I almost kind of get the appeal of the Apple Vision Pro now that I think about it. You don't have to wrestle into your pockets for your phone, to unlock it, to type on the greasy keyboard, to wrestle with the slow performance and the bulky interface..... Like think about it. One of the most popular premium services, Spotify, you can listen to on the headset WITHOUT taking out your phone or keeping your phone opened constantly like you are required to on default Spotify Free. CZcams, like he showed in the video, you can literally watch while you're doing the dishes, without worrying about splashing your phone with water. Wet hands? No problem, you are literally touching the AIR. Even if you get dirt on your hands, you know you're not going to grease up your phone because you are not using a phone.
I agree that it's dissociative and disconnected, but so is using a phone in public. Absolutely people stare down to look at their phones in public, because for most sane people the anxiety of city life is literally unbearable (worrying about pickpockets, people judging you, etc.) It's REALLY not that different to using your phone for 8 hours a day. I think it's definitely a bit better than a VR headset, because that literally just isolates you from everyone and everything, but in a way worse as well.
See I disagree with Eddie here. I don't think tech companies are forcing this on us, I think these are things that we asked for. How many people watched a movie like Minority Report and imagined what it would be like to be able to do those same things? How many dreamed of technology getting to a point where they can access information and create virtual worlds with a swipe of their hands? I know I did. It wasn't until seeing the product in action that I realized the dystopian nature of it, but that doesn't mean I get to retroactively pretend like I never wanted it in the first place. I did and millions of sci-fi dreamers like me did too.
Seeing the number of screens you can have open at once was terrifying
The concept of a smartphone has peaked, so instead of focusing our efforts on tackling issues like, I dunno, the ever-increasing cost of living and climate change, we're going to dig our heels further and monetize our every waking moment instead. I guarantee, once this kind of technology is embedded inside our minds, it's going to make us watch an ad before going to bed.
Ready Player One's villain motivation being selling off a large amount of the player's view for advertising was supposed to be satire. Less than 10 years after the movie came out, it's Apple, X and Meta's driving philosophy. Harvesting user data to sell off for targeted advertising.
@@WhiteythereaperSo in other words, they’re doing something completely different than in the book…
Honestly the sensory overload made me feel pretty nauseous.

the long shot of Eddy in his room at the end with the music transitioning from "bright looking future" to "unsettling dystopia" was so so good. incredibly well done.
God. Imagine in the not to distant future where they install impants for AR tech and not being able to look away from adverts popping up while you....live.
The Casey segment nearly broke me. How he described something so dystopian and depressing, and then claimed it was a good thing unsettled me in a way I wasn't expecting.
What really got to me was the AI girlfriend. Yes, you turned it into something funny, a good parody, but there are genuine people out there who use these services because they're that lonely.
They're that isolated and these companies aren't creating products which could help them conquer their obstacles, but rather create more. They WANT to drain people of LIFE, 'cause that means they'll buy more products to try and fill the void. They're advertising themselves as a symbiotic aid when they're a parasite in a flimsy, plastic disguise.
I know! He wants to turn the entire world into his fucking bedroom!
it highlights how detached from realitiy people like casey have already gotten to mistake this for a good thing.
They are paid a lot of money to influence purchasing decisions. All of these influencers, including our boy Eddy here, are parasites.
That's capitalism babeee
This whole video and these comments give off such Luddite vibes lol. What happened to trashing a product because it’s over priced garbage instead of fear mongering and questioning the moral fiber of society?
I mean… I guess it’s modern day political discourse in full swing, nothing can’t *not* be about politics and if you don’t pick a side you’re amoral… but still, get a grip guys.
The AI girlfriend is truly depressing. "Hey, dont make meaningful human connections. Talk to an unfeeling machine who is only talking to you because it's programmed to." Sure it's an amazing feat of tech, but it's truly dystopian and depressing.
It's wild to me that we've reached a point where people can form their own parasocial relationships with an AI.
Though the phrase is overused and a bit insensitive, this does genuinely feel like the pinnacle of being terminally online. Companies are going to love when these things become affordable (if ever) because it's an all-new algorithm that they can use to feed more ads and services to consumers who are depraved of connection and seeking endless hours of escapism.
The technology is impressive, but I hope adoption for it doesn't catch on.
To quote Blade Runner "You look lonely I can fix that".

@@slyishopeful5876you can't recommend sci fi, when we are talking about real world
I mean, is it any more pathetic than how some people pay for only fans or those adult cam shows?

That what we will get if Apple gets its way.
Bravo on creating such a great vlog here . I can appreciate the time and effort made in doing this one. Very impressive..
I appreciated the range of vehicles represented in the "costs as much as a used car" joke.
Same, when I saw the Altima I thought "you'll be needing a new transmission with that"
Mitsubishi it's older but should last a while.
Sometime I really don't understand Apple... I think they missed an incredible opportunity there because they could've sell this thing for at least 10,000$
Easily!!
The fact the AI gf in the ad only has her face move while the rest of the image is perfectly still is extremely unsettling
She's like a Family Guy animation
It's like going to the Haunted Mansion ride at Disney Land
And only her eyes and mouth. No wrinkling or creasing at ALL. So eerie
it's at best moderately unsettling compared to what she was saying
I agree, the ai girlfriends all look and talk so fake it deeply disturbed me when Eddie was watching those advertisements.
Masterclass video. Exemplary on all levels.
The monochrome outro with the hum of the glitchy bass changed my life.
Honestly your best video yet. I loved every second of it dude
"If your brain feels like it's the real thing, why would you ever go through the trouble of feeling the real thing ever again?" This is such a genuinely terrifying line and a fantastic way to end the video. Bravo.

that casey take was so unsettling to me… the fact that y’all seemed like you were about to have the same opinion on how removed you felt from the world around you, until the very end of his sentence. how excited he was for that… made me kind of sad
Casey is an npc, it's natural he'd think something like this is a positive
Honestly I might agree with casey more than eddie because for me, I use VR once in a while but it's just for gaming. I don't think people will ever be too dependent on it
so you do agree with him…
@@njdotson so you agree with Casey that'll be good for us to be disconected with each others ? Or am i missing something here ?
@@njdotson If companies weren't so greedy I would def agree I think this tech is crazy cool and as an introvert online is the only way i have ever been social before the internet i just wasn't as social i stayed inside and read books as a little little kid and extroverts are still always bugging about getting together to do this and that, the early internet did feel more connected because we were experiencing this new thing together and we all don't rely on tv to set the tone for what is trendy etc. so we are disconnected and the new sterilization of corporate run internet is what feels disconnected but to say technology itself is the reason for the disconnection no it's the greed of corporations that is disconnecting us from one another and it's on purpose.
You’re a comedy genius. Love this video. You have perfectly summed up the danger in this type of technology. Kudos dude 🙏🏻
As an Apple costumer, having multiple screens inside the VR made me think twice about buying a toy that basically does the same thing as an iPhone or iPad.
I hate it how nowadays every new technological invention isn't pitched as a legit life improvement that would benefit humanity. Instead they try to create this cloud of inevitability around it, like "oh there's no going back now, adapt or be left in the dust!", like how NFT bros talked about NFTs
It’s EXACTLY that Tech Crunch scene from Silicon Valley. Highly recommend it to anyone who hasn’t seen it, it’s on YT.

There have been a lot of incidents like doing a big marketing push when there aren't enough therapists ready to take on new clients so people who thought they'd get help quickly have to wait for who-knows-how-long, letting people register as therapists when they don't have the right/current credentials, or uploading personally identifiable data (including markers like seeking religious or LGBTQ+ focused services) to advertiser databases.
They don’t have to give you a liscenced therapist. Note all their ads now say “professionals”
the bit where he walks through his room depressed all the while being surrounded by screens' overlapping media playback- was a WORK OF ART. it was probably meant as a joke or a bit but wow.
genuinely such a good showcase of how this device can absolutely make our attachment to technology even worse
eddy spent the entire video talking about dystopian tech futures so im sure it wasnt a random bit
That final shot of eddy alone in his home ? 🔥🔥🔥🔥
we live in a society…
Why does my reply keep disappearing?
never has a product review given me such an existential crisis
Wow, well done on this video.
I also enjoyed your commentary, made me laugh, thanks for the review. Also makes you really think about technology as a whole and the dystopia we are heading towards.
when you put the ai painting over your fathers one it really struck me that there are going to be people who live in virtually decorated houses, which would just be empty walls and bare furniture but with the headset(or whatever in the future) on, it would be furnished with ai paintings or even just images of already famous paintings, scary realizing how dystopian the present and near future are.
I mean this sounds like a really cool way to put a famous art gallery anywhere in the world. Museum culture could change forever and more people more informed about history is a good thing.
And you'll pay real money for it
and each piece of virtual decor will cost money close to what real decor costs now.
Landlords will start including virtual decor only clauses in their leases.....

We're living in PSYCHO-PASS

the scene where he was scrolling through tiktok in the dark and saw the ai girlfriend ads was one of the most depressing and dread inspiring things I've seen in a while. put a dark feeing in my stomach ngl
Welcome to the new age
As someone who has had zero trouble getting women, it doesn't bother me at all. Maybe people that do care or are scared/worried out by it are the opposite of that.
@@CrAzYpotpiethis has to be bait lol
the loneliness epidemic becoming an investment opportunity for exploitative AI startups is gross and trying to turn it into an opportunity to flex is gross too
@@MasqueradePW I don't see a problem with the most disgusting and loser of men getting some happiness in their life when it hurts no one else.
@@MasqueradePW Lonely, sad, unattractive people getting some joy in life, at the harm of no one else, yeah, sounds so evil.
Crazy how no one's mentioning that you can get a Quest3 that does 90% of what this thing does (along with wider app support and proper gaming) at a mere fraction of the price.
this video gave me anxiety. thank you for this sad dystopian but true take on our everyday reality.
The AI girl made me so mad. “Oh I liked this movie” “drawing relaxes me” you CANT do any of that. She’s just a voice. I hate that
stay mad im ryan gosling-pilled

Fun fact: to replace the front glass (that is not even actually glass) of the apple vision pro without AppleCare costs $799. With AppleCare it costs $299, but the AppleCare itself costs $499. So to replace the front glass WITH AppleCare you save a single freaking dollar. God I hate this company.
That is outrageous
You don't need AppleCare, but you should still get it because we want that extra dollar so that Tim Cook can afford that 8th mansion
Well you're just looking for reasons to hate Apple so who cares if you like telling god how u hate Apple!! After all, HE gave Eve the Apple to hand Adam and we got you!!

@@GravityVT it has to abide by rules for any place it's being sold. That's why you get those cookie acceptance messages on websites now. There's a law in (the eu I believe) that requires them.
I feel absolutely the same as a mental health counselor. These AI bots are 'yes men' to unhealthy coping mechanisms and escapism, furthering people into a chemical depression/constant understimulation. And then it gets worse enough for the actual professionals to get involved (when we probably should have been in the first place)... Our job isn't just to validate and listen, it's to challenge unhealthy thought patterns and teach skills to mitigate cognitive distortions or interpersonal effectiveness. That is not what an "AI ""therapist""" does.
We aren't anywhere near being replaced, haha. Not when these AI bots clearly aren't developed by people who competently understand law or mental health.
The "Her" storyline naturally unfolding was a perfect touch dude
If people ask me where I can watch Her I'm gonna link them this video
Her was truly a touching movie and can only have happened in that fantasy. Nowadays it just seems out right naive giving what we know about actual AI

I love how it was at 3:05 when i hits my first ad break. All those ads surely must facilitate your ability to puchase that Apple product.
This was HILARIOUS and I needed that today. Thank you.
as a person who constantly opens tabs and forgets about them, there are some horrific implications to being able to leave tabs scattered around my house. like what if i open the hall closet for the first time in a while and i find out youtube autoplay has been going down a rabbit hole in the dark for a week.
I feel like this is the worst product to come about if people develop schizophrenia. Just imagine how many times are you just hearing something and unable to decipher it as an ad…
That's funny though
@@hopelessent.1700To be fair… most people with schizophrenia are unfortunately the same people you see smoking meth on the sidewalk downtown. They’re not dropping 3600 bucks on a headset.
It’s not their fault, our government and healthcare system failed them.
Then you'd become a Tab Hoarder
Don't worry, it's so bad at remembering that everything resets once you use it in a different place😂
‘You can’t wear glasses with it, which is weird’
‘You have to buy optical inserts’
Of fucking course apple would do this.
All the while it’s probably messing your vision up while wearing it 🫣
Is it really Apple if they don’t exploit disabled people?
My $400 (AUD) Oculus Quest 2 lets me comfortably wear glasses while using it, either with the special spacer that's included in the box, or even without. There's lenses available for purchase if I want to give them my prescription, but honestly, I don't need to. I played through the entirety of Half-Life: Alyx wearing my thick-as-Milhouse glasses, and the only issue I had was the foam surround leaving a red mark on my face.
1/10th of the price, and can support people wearing glasses, and Apple didn't think to design around that?
@@SolidIncMedia No they did think about it but know the people who'll buy this will be dumb enough to pay their extortion.
@@SolidIncMediahow much is mark paying you for that comment?
That was soon well made 😂 So inventive, so entertaining. Well done 👏🏾
Really enjoying Eddy's transition from "guy who commits hard to a bit until it physically harms him" to "guy staring down the barrel of a reality he does not want to live in. but also there's bits."
Reality is often disappointing

The AI basically answering "Yes and No/Whatever you think" to every question was hilarious.

when the AI girlfriend ad said "our friends and family can take time to respond because they're on their own journeys... life is a struggle..." it really highlighted how absolutely unhinged tech has made our expectations for social interactions. Like, they really are pushing this idea that everything and everyone should be immediately available and that we should never have to wait for anything. It makes me wonder, is the reason social media makes us feel isolated because it's also taught us to expect everything as soon as we want it? Are we isolated, or do we just have unrealistic expectations for how instant our gratification should be? Are we isolated, or are we being conditioned to think that everything should be effortless even when building connections requires effort? Are we isolated, or have we forgotten how to cope with inconvenience in a world that pushes convenience onto us so heavily?
Feeling it every other day but on the other end. My girlfriend keeps telling me we don't talk like we used to, not enough, sometimes we barely talk. So far it has been IMPOSSIBLE to make her understand that we live an ocean across and we both have rather frantic lives, especially her, it is LOGICALLY impossible to have a lot of talking when not only you both have stuff to do, but also have around 14 hours taken away because you both sleep at two different moments and the remaining 10 are usually occupied by work or, god forbid, real life socialization.
to me this kind of tech also conditions people to be more individualistic... just because our friends and family are busy and on their own journeys, doesn't mean they don't have time for us? we can still rely on them and they can still rely on us? it's so yikes. life is a struggle but we're better supporting each other, not replacing that support with an AI gf
We’re isolated.
@@KyrieFortuneMaybe it is the long distance relationship where you never see each other ever that is the actual problem, not technology. Tech allowed you to even meet in the first place.
@@CrAzYpotpieexactly, we can chat in real time instead of waiting weeks for a letter, we can HEAR each other, and yet it's not enough. It HAS to be absolutely immediate. I used to feel an immense anxiety if she didn't answer within half an hour, had to go to therapy to deal with this anxiety (among other things), and now I have to be on the receiving hand of the anxiety that was ruining my life. Everything just HAS to be immediate and it's actually harmful
hearing the "If you got into a car accident, DON'T call an attorney, use this AI app instead." ad for the 53727th time and being unable to skip it made me angry LMAO

i struggle real hard with derealization/dissociation and i cannot imagine how badly this would fuck up my mental health...... human brains are not designed for this type of constant consumption of media
Yeah I know how you feel, I struggle with it in episodes. Something like this would be a nightmare
i feel the same way
I’ve been recently struggling with moments of derealisation which trigger panic attacks, so yeah, I feel you. I am hopeful that not a lot of people will fall prey to this tech. It’s scary stuff.
depends on the person really but yeah a lot of people do get impacted with dissociation so they should not be using it.
really reminds me of that funny feeling by bo burnham, this whole video really feels like an echo of inside's message and its really unsettling

The Kavernacel is not clowning on them, but he's talking about how influencers shouldn't promote them. Also, Man Carrying thing just recently clowned on them.
There's been a few videos talking about how they suck relatively recently.
Yeah it sucks how some youtubers like ted nivison still advertise them. They have to know how bad it looks.
It truly sucks trying to be a content creator these days. CZcams doesn't pay shit so all your left with is upping your Patreon game or advertise a shady sponsor you never heard of.

I didn't think it was possible for anything to look dumber being worn in public than Google Glass, but 10 years later and Apple knocks it out of the park
Its almost like these engineers dont understand that sex appeal sells products
No one is gonna buy something that cant be worn fashionably with their outfits
At least have a fashion designer on board, man
I used to know a guy who had a tester pair of the Glass, and I honestly didn’t think they looked bad
Google glass was pretty cool actually. It was way more low key
LMAO, right? and to think that i thought you couldn't look dumber outside than having Google Glass... Apple is always "innovating" by copying the dumbest shit from other companies, and somehow making it worse.

I bought a $3,500 Apple Macintosh SE back in 1987.
It was the closest thing to the holy grail, a Macintosh II, and I thought it would give me a technical advantage. I tried to make money with it and only made about 1,000 writing software, and boy did I try my heart out. The Mac SE is now pretty much worthless.
If I had instead took the same money and put it into Apple Stock, I'd have 30 million today, thanks to the ipod, ipad, and iphone.

I know most people are going to talk about that AI girl thing being exploitative or "cringe" or whatever, but the thing that stood out to me the most was how 90% of her conversation was just "isn't AI a cool business venture?" She sounds more like she wants to sell me video game development middleware more than actually play games with me. If I met a real person talking like that, I'd feel like I'm getting roped into a MLM business scam more than a friend or date.
She wants to sell you land in the metaverse
And that's how that type of "experience" will always be.
