> If I could go to a space where I'm immersed in code, data, paint or sound and could interact with it to create, I'd be all sold on VR. I'm not saying that wouldn't be cool, but using coding as an example, how much more immersed are you going to be coding in VR as opposed to going into a quite room where no one will disturb you with multiple monitors. The extra immersion is cool, but I don't being slightly more immersed in the way VR provides will lead to any sort of technological revolution. > But AR? What can I get with it that I can't with a phone? It's not about getting new information, it's about not needing the phone to provide that information. Think about a surgeon having the parts of heart overlaid on the body while doing surgery. Think about firefighters having the blueprints of the building they are entering in front of their eyes. The value of AR isn't providing new information, it provides an alternative to relying on memory for that information.
