Yes, VR is TV on a nose, but it's here and can be bought. Neuralink is way more important tech, but it is years/decades away.

- zekrioca 5y agoIt is funny anyway, and I see it mostly as a preparation for Neuralink in terms of its moral aspects, which is kinda interesting philosophically speaking.
- mlajtos 5y agoYes, HMD is direct visual input feed to your brain as you can get without being invasive. Neuralink implanted to visual cortex might get you similar feature, but neural "writing" (as opposed to reading, i.e. generating impulses in the brain) is a hard problem – we don't know how to encode the information. One route might be to just dump the signal in the cortex and hoping the brain will learn to interpret it as it does with other senses.
