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.

I'm going to have to mute this now, but I'm hearing from several people that they are Very Mad™ and I want to make sure they are validated.

Imma come straight out of the gate and say: this shit will be used to harm you, just like all the shit before it. Become a Luddite not because you hate the mill, but because you hate what has been done to you with the mill.
That said, the technology here isn’t new. The linger cursor (that’s the old name for the eye navigation) is probably low key to people who’ve never tried to use this bullshit for something other than jacking off the most important aspect for normal style use.
You can’t have swinging two weird looking dildos around as a precondition for xr.
The mental state detection is an elusive kind of language, it’s middle manager speak for divining intent. Pretty necessary for linger cursor work. Early implementations using those goofy glasses you’d get punched in a bar for wearing had this problem where the user would be reading along, get lost in thought or focus on something out of plane (other than the screen) and the system would correctly register a linger and click on something.
To figure out if you e got a user that intends to click on something you need a biofeedback loop. It’s not just a feedback loop because there’s an organism integrated into it. It’s not necessarily a skinnerbox because there doesn’t have to be a skinner in the loop.
So this absolute psychopath isn’t actually describing their pivotal role in creating the ending of a clockwork orange, because they didn’t actually do that.
What they’re trying to do is make prospective employers think they did so they can get money.
Apologies for the tone, I been listening to a lot of varn vlog, The Mansplaining Podcast (tm).
And when you destroy the mill, tell them it was Ned Ludd
The Samsung Galaxy S4, a 10 year old android smartphone from 2013, had this. You could scroll with your eyes. It worked about as well as you'd expect. Hopefully this technology has improved.
Yeah that implementation didn’t make as big a splash as I expected when first revealed, mostly because it sucked. That’s the real promise though, closed eye orgasms and hands free visuals.
So everyone is thinking about this. Because that's the first thing I thought, all this tech is just going to be used to find new ways to watch mediocre porn.
That is pretty worrying, if people think porn addiction is bad now, imagine it with realistic VR. So many guys are just going to give up on relationships.
I don’t think so tbh.
First though, I was only referring to the hands free visuals part of the inversion of “hands free orgasms and closed eye visuals” new religious movement idea in response to the failure of early linger cursor technologies. The big thing was freeing your hands from feeding your eyes more information.
Re: porn, impact on our lives has more to do with accessibility as opposed to intensity or immersiveness of experience.
Did religious people really think that hands free scrolling was satanic? Incredible lmao.
I'm just worried that if accessibility and immersion were to be combined, it would have a pretty massive effect on society. It's mainly because I tried a really terrible version of the VR stuff a while ago, and even though the image quality was terrible, I could see how easily it could screw up someone's life. It might be one of the very few things Joe Rogan is right about. I hate to mention him, but I can't really think of anyone in the mainstream that talks about it, aside from crazy religious freaks that think anything is satanic.
No, that was a joke about how hands free scrolling is the “dream” for a next generation user interface just like how for a specific kind of transcendental meditation set “closed eye visuals and hands free orgasms” is the dream.
I don’t think technology that deepens the experience of pornography is what drives young men away from meaningful relationships. Fundamentally, the relationships aren’t there or aren’t achievable and so they might turn to parasocial ones or escapism, but there’s no precedent for porn driving men away from the family.
I have trouble accepting that young men would even accept that situation since now there’s a whole swath of movements and aesthetics that reflect a desire to in fact recreate the family pornography would be pushing them away from.
What’s destroying the family is the shredding of our social fabric as living conditions decline. Pornography isn’t causing that or adding to the problem.
When I move into a pod hotel to live with my wife hatsune miku it won’t be because my real wife and house and kids and job and life can’t compare, it’ll be because there isn’t enough of a future on offer to resist the mirror.
All good points. Yeah it's not looking good out there...
