It seems more likely to happen through a brain interface, but also I’m increasingly skeptical that will ever be possible. Optimistic estimates for a full brain interface are a century plus, just by judging at the number of direct neuron measures we currently have and applying a (optimistic) Moore’s law style exponential curve: https://waitbutwhy.com/2017/04/neuralink.html
Vr is real fun but it’s fundamentally just another display technology. It’s less “ready player one” and more “what 3d TVs promised and failed to be”.
True that. I just can’t wait until there are full headsets that are as small as glasses with wireless data transmission to my PC. There are at least a few companies that are coming closer every year, like Meta. Not a big fan of Meta though.

They’re probably never going to be as small as glasses just due to hard physical limits in optics.
Maybe. I like to think that it’s just a matter of time though.
