Apple's $3500 Nightmare

wow. I can’t believe this is how I find out you were looking at pictures of dolphins instead of listening to me talk. consider this our final picnic together 😡

The AI women ad is hilariously evil. There’s no way someone wrote the line “imagine unlimited affection” without laughing like a supervillain

The Wall-E people living on that ship, are suddenly becoming reality.

I hate hearing AI telling people that it "loves" certain foods, "loves classical music," and "loves long walks on the beach." AI cannot "love" anything, especially complex and fragile human beings...

The most horrific thing I saw in this was the barrage of advertisements. If I had multiple active windows spamming me with noisy ads, I'd lose it.

that ai girlfriend ad was genuinely horrifying. "human connection is hard, so let's get rid of it completely and forever stay in a digital, fictional world that is so much better than real life, so you never have to go back" that's enough internet for today

That last third of the video genuinely scared me. It's scary. As a teen from 2008 is this the world I will live in? If I have children is this the world we will give them? I don't think I'm ready to accept that, I don't think I ever will.

Damn man you did not have to hit us like that. The ending to your video really touched me. Especially the very last few moments after you said the last statement when I saw someone in a dark room feeling as if they were living life. This is a masterpiece. Well done.

Holy shit, the AI girlfriend was horrifying.

The moment you unveiled your “extremely” “lifelike” avatar, I knew in my bones that the $4000 was justified.

never has a product review given me such an existential crisis

That's one thing that everyone testing the vision Pro says about it "It will eventually get cheaper" and my question is... why?... why do they think that? Has the money hungry company, Apple, ever priced down their next generation of products? No. The iPhone 5 was not cheaper than the iPhone 4 even though it entered the 2nd generation. So why do people think the Gen 2 vission Pro would be cheaper than the Gen 1?

Wasn’t expecting a Black Mirror episode pretending to be an Eddy Burback video. But here we are.

The idea of a baby wearing a vision pro so parents can show them floating AR sensory videos is sci-fi dystopian nightmare fuel…

im really glad you talked about the disassociation you felt after using the headset. as someone with a disassociative disorder, i genuinely cannot use products like this or VR because it sends me into an episode. and i worry, with technology like this becoming more prevalent, and with so much most focus on the disconnection from reality, that more people (especially younger ones) will start to develop these disassociative disorders. or, this tech will become too prevelant, and it will be impossible to function in daily life without them, similar to how people use smartphones now. if someone has issues using this tech, oh well. figure it out. it makes me genuinely worried for the future, both for people who already struggle with this like myself, and others who may later on.

this is genuinely pretty horrifying, really well made video though

"Are you feeling alone and isolated because of too much technology? Why don't you use more technology to solve that?"

Seeing the number of screens you can have open at once was terrifying

I love how Apple introduced it as “A brand new technology!!!” When almost this exact thing already exists. The quest 2 has a see through option. If you want a cinema experience, big screen. Good multiplayer? VR chat or Recroom. All of which are significantly cheaper to free.

If YouTube has a video of the year awards or something along the same lines, this video deserves to be that 👏👏👏👏👏👏
