This is a very important point and mostly absent from the conversation. We have many words that almost mean the same thing or can mean ment different things - and conversations about intelligence and consciousness are riddled with them.

Why not just target OpenXR on either Android or Windows? The former would probably cover 95% of users.

I'm still rather baffled. It's an immersive/spatial browser but it only runs on a Mac desktop and an AR headset I've never heard of. Can you see why people might be confused?

So is there a build that can run on a headset? Preferably not a Vision Pro as I don't have access to one.

Seeing words like "spatial" and "immersive" I was rather expecting it to run on at least one headset?

I sometimes use a VR headset instead of a monitor but I do end up using a laptop because of the keyboard and touchpad. I can conceive of using maybe a phone, an ultra light headset and a compact keyboard and TouchPad combined? I'm usua

So all AI generated code is "slop"? Without exception? Without any nuance? It's hard to take opinions like that seriously and not just dismiss them as hyperbole.

Except they don't mean "specific examples of AI content are slop". They unambiguously say that all uses of generative AI are slop.

I had a similar experience in a a game meant to simulate regular city car driving. Most releveant to this comment thread however was the fact that the graphics were very crude and not in a good way. I absolutely dispute the claim that rea

OK - so I deeply value human creativity and I disagree with your first statement. At least I think we don't currently know whether it will work out this way. My hunch is that human creativity is incredibly resilient and will route ar
