Our biological eyes can only see about 0.0035 percent of the EM spectrum, our biological brains can only process so much incoming data and can only hold 7~11 items in working memory.
We suck at visualizing large numbers, perceiving probabilities or feeling intuitively anything that hunter-gatherer primates weren't designed to intuit.
An AR/VR set isn't just goggles: it's a wearable computer plugged into your eyes, which are plugged into your brain.
Our greatest leaps were made by people who could visualize things others couldn't, simulating them in their heads in 50 complex steps that build upon one another, then coming back down to Earth to explain it to the rest of us.
Give Isaac Newton, Nikola Tesla, Alan Turing, Albert Einstein, or Srinivasa Ramanujan an AR/VR set and see how much further they could extend their vision.
