VR is the inevitable final frontier for humanity. My presentation about @thatswilddotcom at @HF0Residency…

I am building an apparatus…

Anyone remember this?

God Azealia Banks is just so good

We now know the winner of our little bet!

"AI friends are dystopian" -- elites who have always been surrounded by interesting people to talk to. "VR is dystopian" -- elites who have always been surrounded by interesting things to see and do. Anti-pleb bias; no theory of mind. Many such cases.

well it's officially past Q2 2026 and @pickle was a massive scam that @thedowd and I extensively warned everyone about. congrats to all those who lost money and didn't listen. as if some SaaS try hard kid was better then Apple at making hardware.

I remember pickle!

You’re looking at the world’s first trillionaire.

No comment other than that Corgi's cold calling is one of the most infuriating things ever. "Would you throw your phone out of the window if I said this was a cold call from Corgi" Is their opening line.

>cool video >ai ads company kill me now

Look what they’ve done to my boy

It seems like every next wave of VR games is just a macro optimization of whatever became popular before it. Because most of these game studios only have Roblox to look to and copy from, the result is a continuously optimized, hyper-efficient, slop category of games and marketing like this. It's bringing us way further away from genuine social worlds and deeper into a confused Roblox copycat category of VR games. The worst part is that these games and their developers are so focused on making money in the short term that to them it appears to be working. VR is really suffering on the axes that matter: retention, cultural relevance, etc.

Just hosted a talent show in VR with ~130 folks in the audience. Multiple players singing, some playing guitar and piano over VoIP. Really wholesome experience that shows how expansive VR can be!

I'm quite confident in the youth-driven mass social rise of VR, but if I’m wrong, then VR could end up looking something more like this.

So strange that everyone’s calling Midjourney Medical a ‘pivot’ lol

VR is obviously easier to imagine unique, platform-native software for and VR software still hasn’t been solved after 10 years. The only thing people propose for AR is applications you’d prefer to do on a phone, laptop, Apple Watch, AirPods, or VR headset. They are far from the predestined next platform.

And useless sells even less than ugly. Specs and AVP are both!

Snapchat popularized possibly the most popular avatars (BitMoji) and chose to go with AR instead. Augmented Reality is fundamentally out of touch with the average person today.
