How to Get into VR
> <i>The development of VR has been surprisingly tied to science fiction. Authors in the field have envisioned the futures that engineers set out to build</i><p>Incidentally, the high <i>romanticism</i> of VR one of the reasons why I am highly skeptical of the industry. The article argues "VR will also enable immersive concerts, reinvented museums, and live, court-side sporting events", but what is it doing <i>now</i> outside of games, which have been hit-or-miss? (the Samsung Gear VR commercials make VR look ridiculous, IMO)<p>AI is a similarly romantic industry, but the difference is that there are many practical, non-gimmicky applications of AI <i>now</i> and already implemented on your phones/PCs.
