Vision Pro will change the world but I’m not convinced for the metaverse reasons you illicit.

The biggest danger to the western world at the minute isn’t climate collapse or political upheaval but the loneliness epidemic. Exacerbated by the pandemic we are in dire need of physical reconnection, not digital.

Snow Crash and Ready Player One were not meant to be aspirational stories but cautionary.

I believe the future of Vision Pro will start out in the workplace where it has thousands of uses. As it gradually becomes a pair of spectacles, Tim Cook’s endgame scenario it becomes a useful tool in navigating a world full of IOT data.
