Reading this, I couldn’t help but think of Ray Kurzweil’s idea that we’ll eventually spend most of our time in virtual environments near 2035 with help of nanobots. This feels like a specific, functional twist on that prediction.
Instead of just a digital world to hang out in, the 'neural computer' is like a specialized VR generated by AI to solve a specific problem. It’s a version of reality that adapts itself entirely to whatever task is at hand. It's fun!

The current best mass market VR is Meta Quest 3. However, Apple first VR headset is an opportunity for developer to start & learn how to use visionOS, experimenting spacial computing.
One french developer like the interaction with the Apple VR compared to the quest 3, it's not perfect but it's working, it's natural to use, but she warn that first good apps will arrive in two years

The VR market is emerging and new ideas is coming (microled, holographic lens, vergence accomodation conflict solutions...)
Douglas Lanman makes a long video on how to pass the visual turing test on AR/VR with tons of ideas

Imagine tomorrow, with some hardware improvement (neuromorphic chips...), we will be able to have the full GPT-4 model (or more powerfull/specific LLM) directly on our own smartphone...
The potential to generate any type of content could be infiny (learn something, speak with virtual friends, analyse our medical record in real time, create a business with multiple virtual employee...)
We have just to install an application on our smartphone, which will configure a prompt, fetch data (conversation data, body data...) and magic happens
I'm thinking... Youtube will be direct concurrent of Udemy, Coursera, Khanacademy but...
Imagine Youtube to be a direct concurrent of public/academic school where child will learn every knowledge cheaply, keep history of student level & knowledge, propose paid public certification and generate LinkedIn like profile of popular world student to sell to big company...
