"AI iMaGEs aRE nOt reALiSTic" - Yeah sure...

@TomFfiske Use it for 2-3 hours daily. Mostly for internet research / browsing while watching YouTube

Who is still using Apple Vision Pro? What are you using it for?

@imlaurieowen Both actually, although the work use is a bit more casual at the moment. I use it for research so I can have a bunch of Safari windows open and not have to remember which tab I left an article in.

@garrett3d For work or entertainment, or something else?

Over a month in and I still use the #VisionPro daily, for multiple hours. Never did that with any other headset and I have over 10 of them

all jokes aside, I love the Vision Pro. And, yes I do get headaches but it's worth it lol

Do you think they will make Apple branded Advil for the #VisionPro ?

@doyouknowchamp It’s the ums and mouth clicks for me

By far the most magical AI experience available right now is voice chatting with ChatGPT. Nothing else comes close.

👉 Mh370 seems to have been pulled from behind - Thanks to Reddit u/GrimZeigfeld for stacking the images and revealing this. This video is elite. I was on a popular debunking forum last night and they got nothing. (#UFOTwitter #UFO #UFOs #UFOSightings #UAPTwitter)

@Aidan_Wolf So goooood!

going on a little AR adventure ☺️

TikTok's shipping velocity is insane. 🤯 Text-to-image AI is now available right inside Effect House. No more jumping between AI image generators and your AR authoring tool. Let a thousand flowers (err face filters) bloom. 🎭

Hi, I’m Dan Miller 👋 I work as a software engineer at @unitygames on the XR team! There’s been a lot of exciting announcements in XR recently and now is a great time to consider upgrading to the 2022 LTS Editor! A thread of XR updates and features for LTS 🧵

Sterling Crispin talking about Apple Vision Pro: "I spent 10% of my life contributing to the development of the #VisionPro while I worked at Apple as a Neurotechnology Prototyping Researcher in the Technology Development Group. It’s the longest I’ve ever worked on a single effort. I’m proud and relieved that it’s finally announced. I’ve been working on AR and VR for ten years, and in many ways, this is a culmination of the whole industry into a single product. I’m thankful I helped make it real, and I’m open to consulting and taking calls if you’re looking to enter the space or refine your strategy. The work I did supported the foundational development of Vision Pro, the mindfulness experiences, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ products, and also more ambitious moonshot research with neurotechnology. Like, predicting you’ll click on something before you do, basically mind reading. I was there for 3.5 years and left at the end of 2021, so I’m excited to experience how the last two years brought everything together. I’m really curious what made the cut and what will be released later on. Specifically, I’m proud of contributing to the initial vision, strategy and direction of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ program for Vision Pro. The work I did on a small team helped green light that product category, and I think it could have significant global impact one day. The large majority of work I did at Apple is under NDA, and was spread across a wide range of topics and approaches. But a few things have become public through patents which I can cite and paraphrase below. Generally as a whole, a lot of the work I did involved detecting the mental state of users based on data from their body and brain when they were in immersive experiences. So, a user is in a mixed reality or virtual reality experience, and AI models are trying to predict if you are feeling curious, mind wandering, scared, paying attention, remembering a past experience, or some other cognitive state. And these may be inferred through measurements like eye tracking, electrical activity in the brain, heart beats and rhythms, muscle activity, blood density in the brain, blood pressure, skin conductance etc. There were a lot of tricks involved to make specific predictions possible, which the handful of patents I’m named on go into detail about. One of the coolest results involved predicting a user was going to click on something before they actually did. That was a ton of work and something I’m proud of. Your pupil reacts before you click in part because you expect something will happen after you click. So you can create biofeedback with a user's brain by monitoring their eye behavior, and redesigning the UI in real time to create more of this anticipatory pupil response. It’s a crude brain computer interface via the eyes, but very cool. And I’d take that over invasive brain surgery any day. Other tricks to infer cognitive state involved quickly flashing visuals or sounds to a user in ways they may not perceive, and then measuring their reaction to it. Another patent goes into details about using machine learning and signals from the body and brain to predict how focused, or relaxed you are, or how well you are learning. And then updating virtual environments to enhance those states. So, imagine an adaptive immersive environment that helps you learn, or work, or relax by changing what you’re seeing and hearing in the background. All of these details are publicly available in patents, and were carefully written to not leak anything. There was a ton of other stuff I was involved with, and hopefully more of it will see the light of day eventually. A lot of people have waited a long time for this product. But it’s still one step forward on the road to VR. And it’s going to take until the end of this decade for the industry to fully catch up to the grand vision for this tech. Again, I’m open to consulting work and taking calls if your business is looking to enter the space or refine your strategy. Mostly, I’m proud and relieved this has finally been announced. It’s been over five years since I started working on this, and I spent a significant portion of my life on it, as did an army of other designers and engineers. I hope the whole is greater than the sum of the parts and Vision Pro blows your mind."

Today we're announcing our $6M fund for AR creators on TikTok 🎉 Creators can get directly paid for popular effects they make in @effecthouse It's never been a more exciting time to make AR!

Need more reasons not to buy this

@nathanwchan Love this idea! I wonder, in the future, if all media will be never be stored in the first place 😂. They’ll be AI generated on demand from your memories.

I have approx. 1 trillion pictures of my 2 kids over the last <4 years since becoming a dad. If I could have only one AI feature for my iPhone it’d be that it auto-runs a GPT-4 image input-like model against all of my photos, on-device, to caption & categorize them all so I never have to. I’d then have super advanced search & action abilities, like: - find all pictures where both kids are looking at the camera & smiling and put them in an album - put all birthday celebration pictures in an album - give me a set of matched pictures where Kid B is wearing Kid A’s hand-me-downs - tell me when Kid A first learned to stand - tell me when Kid B first got braces Bonus points for video search.

What if you find a way to transform videos into a new volumetric format. What do you do next? Write a paper? get a patent? an angel investor?
