Lucid Reality Labs’ Post

A podcast about the XR industry trends, data security, and new tools offered by AI for enterprises in Healthcare, Airspace and Defense, and Entertainment domains with Lynn Welch, Chief Growth Officer at Lucid Reality Labs!

Yep, Meta's CTO is talking VR/AR and I went down the rabbit hole (again) so you don't have to. Here are my takeaways: 1) Wide adoption of AR/VR is *still* five years away, but this time it's different, right? Thompson is uncharacteristically excited about the demo he saw (a $10k prototype) and sees this as the first legitimately "post phone" device. Bosworth's guess on GTM? 3-5 years. 2) Why have one hype train when you can have two? Now it's AI + XR. This does feel like a legitimate unlock: AI will speed XR development and custom environments. Building 3D environments is hard, and it’s a big blocker for app development in the XR space. Generative AI can do this on the fly and give users the ability to create worlds in real time. 3) Now you can get judged by a computer *and* strangers at the same time. AI can use XR’s sensing capabilities to deliver agentic experiences. Even with the displays turned off, XR glasses can record everything in your environment and provide insights. (e.g., “What was the breed of that dog I saw on Mission street?”) 4) The endless scroll, now populated with your own virtual self AI will inevitably personalize your News Feed and take you way outside of your social network, and XR is the logical next step for delivery. Advertising could be based upon the user’s environment and generative content could be tailored to the user’s profile. (e.g., an ad with you wearing the shirt) What do you think? Are we headed towards a Singularity powered by Luxottica? Link in comments to the original interview with Ben Thompson and Andrew Bosworth. #AR #VR #XR #Meta #Orion #AI

How XR+AI Will Change Our Future 🤯🚀💎 Yay, finally someone has done a concept of how XR tech along with AI can work together in relation to your surroundings In my opinion, one of the coolest elements of XR is creating new experiences, what if you were in the same place but it changed visually completely! This concept is just a small part of how XR+AI collaboration can really manifest itself and in my opinion this is the future of such applications As AI becomes a great handy tool for problem solving, it's just a matter of thinking about what value such products can deliver in conjunction with XR, even though I think it will be fun at first What do you think? What ideas does this kind of technology overlap give you? Share in the comments!👇🏻📖 Credit: reddit/jesser722 #vr #meta #quest #xr #virtualreality #metaquest #tech #future #ai #collaboration
