Miles envisions AR glasses directing users in real time.
@paulg My money's on an ~always on wearable, with camera and AR display - basically what Google Glass wanted to be. People will use them to effectively become meat puppets for AI agents
No one knows yet what the next form factor for computing will be, and yet there will be a next form factor, and it will seem obvious in retrospect.
Users dismissed AI wearables with AR displays as the next platform because exponential progress makes it either mind-controlling gray goo or nothing.
No Digg Deeper questions have been answered for this story yet.
@robertskmiles Worn where though?

@paulg I'm assuming something glasses-like, if you want to be able to overlay graphics on your vision

@paulg I could also imagine something more earbud/earring-like, if you're ok with just audio output. I'm not sure how viable a camera would be on that kind of device though, and vision is likely important

@robertskmiles @paulg you can't take the exponential seriously and then worry about AR glasses; it's either mind controlling gray goo or nothing
@paulg @robertskmiles Toe rings are going to make a come back
@vlad3ciobanu @paulg It would always be a stepping stone, but unless robotics advances faster than I expect it to, there'll be a period of at least some months where "centaurs" are competitive in many domains

@robertskmiles @paulg To be a true meat puppet you need to start from birth
