Tinfoil hat time. Do I think the rogue AI stories from AI companies are true? No. I think they're attempting to artificially deflate the AI bubble before it bursts.
Telling their investors they "had to" slow down for the good of humanity would be one way to do it.
However, if the stories are real, and AI bots take the Internet down like a cancer. Well, that'd just be alright in my book. Us nerds will find a way to network with each other without companies. Heck…

The Steam Frame arrived.
Not a great experience so far really.
The Wifi-dongle that brings 6G streaming doesn't currently work on Linux V6 kernels. Which is what Debian has.
Apparently Windows is the only thing fully supported really. Internet doesn't even sound that optimistic about the Steam Machine though it ought to at least work once I have one of them.
Streaming from the linux box is mostly unsuccessful during this lunch break here. Slow to start and timing out, slow to get going. Presumably partly coz only 5G wifi.
Controllers feel light and shoddy, aren't tracked particularly well. Pistol Whip scores well down due to the dropping frames and the terrible tracking of the aim.
Overall seems worse than the Vive at 30 minutes or so of playing with it.
Hope they improve it I guess, and streaming might work better once there's a machine with a V7 linux kernel compatible with this wifi dongle in the house.
Fairly comfortable to wear, though the foam attached by magnets comes off too easily as you don or remove the headset.
Sadly, this is not currently a machine which beats Facebook's Quest3 at all.
Have tried to install Alyx and Doom VR on it directly. Can't tell how that goes till after work now really.
