The neat part is that the hologram can do about the same amount of actual, physically and intellectually demanding work per day that the CEO can.

Well, they've been expecting the rest of us to be in at least two places at once for a while....

It's not a hologram. It's 2D. That fan setup is nothing more than bait.

I'm sure regular workers will be allowed to use this tech to be remotely present in the office from home right?...right?...

These clowns are wasting space when they are at one place at the time, let alone two.

I'm JUST thinking about Silicon Valley now.

“To be” … I just hope they start clone themselves and end up like meeseeks

While probably working from home after forcing their employees to return to the office.

At that point, you're better off just having a virtual conference.

Cool, can I use a hologram to make it look like I'm in the office?

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Aside from the CEO/WFH hate everyone has already obsessed over, is this closer to having holograms like in sci-fi? Last I knew the problem was there's no way to stop the light so it wasn't possible to create.

Or is this just a projector on a wall?

Surprised this one took so long. We've had basic hologram tech for decades now. Even with a private jet, it's not like flying cross country all the time for business is fun or anything. Being on a jet is still being on a jet, and not being able to do anything except pull out your laptop, mobile device or book.
