The Metaverse hype bubble burst—and the tourists left. Now the real builders are working. XR is more exciting than ever: new games, innovative brand campaigns, real use cases. Quietly, this is the start of something big that will be obvious in retrospect.

AI is already doing crazy good work in film and advertising, and it just keeps getting better and better.

I'm simultaneously excited and terrified

Many people over the years told me that LiDAR is required for a car to self drive. Many even blocked me for arguing with them. Not a single apology note today. Not my first rodeo. Seen this behavior every time we go through technology paradigm shift. Many told me they never

XR is early. It'll probably keep being early till we have the AR glasses mainstream breakthrough.

I've been using the em dash — this longer hyphen thing — since before ChatGPT started liberally sprinkling it in everyone's writing. You just type Alt 0151 on your keyboard on Windows.
