    Lmao, I’m a principal engineer at one of the big game engine companies. “AR is revolutionizing XR applications across various sectors” has been spammed for half a decade, hoping it will catch on.

    It ain’t revolutionizing shit and barely anyone uses them / develops for them because they suck. Vision Pro is supposed to change that but I have it on good authority it still pretty much sucks for the same reasons.

        I wonder how much of it is “requires hardware breakthrough” vs just mass scale for something good (and cheap) enough.

          It’s kind of a catch 22.

          For it to grow to those levels it needs to sell but it needs to be at those levels to be affordable enough to sell haha
