Beware: The Apple Vision Pro may rewire our brains in unexpected ways

Our brains are about to undergo a massive, society-wide experiment that could rewire our sense of the world around us and make it even harder to agree on what constitutes reality.

"What we're about to experience is, using these headsets in public, common ground disappears," Bailenson says. "People will be in the same physical place, experiencing simultaneous, visually different versions of the world. We're going to lose common ground."

The longer you keep it on, the more you're turning yourself into a human guinea pig — one with really, really bad depth perception.

Just continuing on the path we’ve been on the last 15 years.

We’ll also lose common ground with the rich elites getting richer off these new technologies. And you’ll never see them wearing Apple Vision Pro outside of planned photo ops.

First thing is you dye your hair blue or purple. Then you’re convinced on climate change being real. You’ll start to like the sound of Hillary Clinton’s voice. And then it’s over. The Apple Vision owns you.

Apple will send you a free gender reassignment consultation

At about 35 I quit adapting to new technologies. I'm full blown angry old man that can't set up a wireless printer.

Most of this has happened already with the iPhone.

You forgot the random meaningless tattoos that you get. And a septum ring in your nose is requires. Bathing is optional

So those of us who refuse to participate in the VR headset world will have a distinct advantage in the real world over those who do… works for me.

Not necessarily. There could be distinct advantages to the brain that could develop like faster response/recognition times.

For instance, older people with declining brain function are sometimes treated by playing call of duty.

Absolutely this.

The more “connected” we get the less connected we are. The only thing that gives me hope is that this kind of shite can’t replace physical touch and the human emotion of being on someone else’s presence. I’m just not sure that’ll be enough with this younger generation who never knew life without this technology.
