Think about 25 or 30 or 50 years down the line. More interesting than the next couple of years. Speculate a bit. After Neuralink and a few other companies torture enough poor monkeys, they eventually figure out how to create high bandwidth brain computer interfaces. We go through a few more paradigm shifts in computing and get 10000-1000000 X or more performance increase. Metaverse protocols have advanced to allow for seamless integration of simulated persons and environments across multiple clusters. The software continues to improve. What you could get is a simulated realm with simulated AI characters living their own lives. But groups of real people are plugged directly in to the simulation and can influence it with their thoughts. There may be some sort of rules to ensure a certain level of stability. But basically you just think "there should be a storm today" and maybe visualize some strong winds. And then it happens in their world. So at that point we become Gods. I am probably getting carried away because I am tired.
