We already automate away all possible human interaction. Maybe in the future we can automate away our senses themselves.

My roommate already looks at his weather app to see what to wear instead of putting his hand out the window. Simulating the weather instead of experiencing it is just the next logical step

When I get dressed in the morning, it's 58 degrees outside. Today there's a high of ~88. It's totally normal to look at the weather to determine what to wear.

I'm reminded of an article about Truman Capote I read sometime last century in which he related visiting a European princess at the Plaza Hotel in the dead of winter during an ongoing snowstorm. He entered her room completely covered in snow; she looked at him and asked, is it still snowing?
