A Casey Neistat Vision Pro video posted over the weekend was, he says, simply intended to be a piece of silly fun – wearing the device while catching metro trains and walking through Times Square.

As cool AF as this is for being "the future", the video just had me worried about the future of idiots standing around town in people's way (like Casey standing in the middle of the stairs while texting).

I mean, yeah, it would be super cool to walk into a grocery store with these on and get recipes and caloric info and suggested alternatives or on-the-spot deals from brands, etc. The potential for this as a user is incredible. But at the same time you've got everyone else in the store trying to walk around you flailing your arms around like while you watch a TikTok video about making chili. Which is not something I would have thought would be a concern twenty years go but we know now that most people are inconsiderate.

The one positive shown here in the video is that you can't really doing anything while you're moving (yet). So the fear of people actually walking and texting / computing or DRIVING with these on is quelled.

I’ve seen this this morning as it was reported to be a skit.

i wonder what kind of grocery store, or mall even, you could create immersive/spatially to browse and discover and get without actually visiting. would you want it to ve social? what kind of layout would be improved without the limits of real estate?

It would be cool if you could control them with your eyes instead tbf
