it is a good ilustration of something like moores law, for a comming end point where a hand held device will have more than enough cabability and capacity to do ANYTHING, a meer mortal will EVER require, and the death of options and features, and a return to personal autonomy and responsibility

AI is the final failure of "intermitent" wipers,which like my latest car, is irevocably enabled to smeer the road grime and imperceptable "rain" into a goo, blocking by ability to see

True. Then we cross a threshold where things that weren't even thought as possible become reachable, and we're back on the treadmill.

That's what we're having with VR: we came to a point where increasing DPI for laptop or phone seemed to make no sense; but that was also the point where VR started to be reachable, and over there a 300DPI screen is crude and we'd really want 3x that pixel density.

yes, obviously, but my point is that I am now tasked with helping the "feature" limp along, whenever it lurches, unexpectedly, into action, therby ADDING distraction which if you read the ancient myths and legends is one of the main methods that evil spirits and deamons undermine and defeat the unwary....and lull them into becoming possesed, hosts, for said entities.

who's working for who here anyway?

already?
