Because textual data is plentiful and easy to model, and physical data is not. This will change - there are now several companies working on humanoid robots and the models to power them - but it is a fundamentally different set of problems

Even more fun when that includes date or time ranges; I've literally had to paste Swedish-style dates into Claude to help me parse what the intended reading is.

I'm pretty sure that at least a few of those are implemented in modern x86 / ARM CPUs? As an immediate example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AES_instruction_set

The optics on the Vision Pro are... well, they're not fantastic. It's a challenge to blow up displays that small to meet your field of view. Peripheral vision on the Quest 3 is far better, but the displays are over double the size

This is a real problem, but it's fine for most VR use cases as you're usually looking at content that's rendered at a distance greater than the focal plane. The problems start to occur when you look at nearby content - that i
