Mark Zuckerberg's virtual reality demo [video]
Man that line about Timberlake was forced. And then he made his wife say it too. Hah.<p>Ok in all seriousness.<p>We little humans perceive most of our world through spatial interactions. The possibilities to make a world enhancing device are incredible and scare me.<p>I&#x27;m concerned that people will forget how great the real Redwood forest is. Or how great real sex is. Or how meaningful life can be apart from a virtual Reality. I&#x27;m afraid that the fake version could be so appealing that I would reject the real and choose to dive into my own Matrix. Many people already play 7 hours per day...what&#x27;s to stop them from never leaving a more immersive experience?<p>Like I said, the positive potential to improve science&#x2F;meetings&#x2F;remote work&#x2F;etc is pretty incredible. I don&#x27;t want to sound like a Debbie downer. But sheesh we need to consider the potential risks to society of a pseudo-reality addiction that is as alluring as VR will be very soon.<p>Is anyone else concerned?
