Meta is installing new tracking software on U.S.-based employees’ computers to capture mouse movements, clicks and keystrokes for use in training its artificial intelligence models, part of a broad initiative to build AI agents that can perform work tasks autonomously, the company told staffers in internal memos seen by Reuters.
And, to add to this, Valve is about to launch their next gen VR headset.
VR’s major barrier is that to do good, AAA game level, VR you need a pretty beefy PC on top of an expensive headset AND a large enough room to take advantage of the roomscale stuff. That isn’t to say that there isn’t fun games that have low requirements, like Beat Saber and Superhot but for games like Half Life: Alyx you’re looking at several thousand USD in hardware.
I think VR will eventually get there, it offers experiences that you can’t get from a monitor, but right now it’s a niche hobby with a pretty limited library of good titles.
