Talk about Global Warming; like the fact that food shortages and water shortages are already on the rise, extreme conditions have guaranteed crop shortages, contaminated food and water, increase costs to food, and extreme droughts, record-breaking wild fires and rising coastlines. Mass immigration of refugees are happening largely in part thanks to Climate change and conflicts (usually) inspired by gas and oil industries (case in point; Venezuela and the US backed Coup)And what's most frustrating is that green renewable energy plans are out there, and are affordable, and will do infinitely more help to communities, health and the future of our economy. Acting Now will save billions of lives and prevent economic collapse. Please, use your influence to spread the message. We are not powerless. In eleven years time, if we don't take action as a human species, there will not be a human species within the next century.

AR is extremely useful and has beneficial applications, but there needs to be limitations to prevent abuses. Mapping the insides of houses for developing software, for example, is fine for short-term analysis, but actually keeping that data stored long-term is a terrible breach of trust. Plus, the ads that would pop up in real time (we all know it's coming) would make ads further inescapable. We also already have problems with people who escape to digital spaces when they can't deal with reality, and it could be problematic for them when you can have AR on all the time. If you wanted to look at the extreme dystopian future possibilities, and given that people are already voluntary RFID chipping themselves, it could end up being a visual implant some day, and who knows? It could be used in very negative ways. Visions of the Black Mirror episode Men Against Fire comes to mind.

We already have our hands full with people not paying attention when they are walking, driving, etc. as super-cool and futuristic as this is, what will be the social interactive element? We have already stamped down a lot of our previous one-on-one immediate connections with family and friends. when was the last time you had a birthday or Christmas party in which you could see most, if not all of your family? In a day and age where we are so socially connected, we have never been so isolated. And what will the overall physical effect be on our brain development? What senses, or what part of the brain will be left behind and what will take the place of prominence as we adapt and modify to our super world? Will creativity be enhanced, or dulled into complacency? Is this part of the advancing 5G? They mentioned the smart cars, that's why I ask.

When I photograph something I don't need to be connected. AR should work without being connected. There needs to be a crash in the Advertisement industry or any industry that collects data. This is corporative bullying. We didn't have it before, we don't need it. It shouldn't even be a question of justice or law: it should be that people express their major dissatisfaction to that level where it matters and companies are forced to readjust just to please people. This would be easier in a situation where everything is not in the same hands (of a very few companies: Google, Apple, Amazon. So people should also feel suspicious of our culture and commodities getting so centralized. We need to think about this, or at least buy Apple and Amazon collectively, so they don't own us but we own them.

I was born with a life-long disability that even Canadians abused me all my life in Toronto for. My glasses cost 1, 000 and I need at least one new pair every few years. So far of my 25 years as a citizen I got zero pennies for any pairs. My mother had to buy them all from her future pension funds. AR would help me tremendously. I can never find a simple thing like a washroom. And since most Canadians are biggots, and hate those of us with disabilities, as now by 40 I have not once had a girlfriend let alone seen the ocean or even stepped one foot into Torontos own High Park, as those with good eyes need to take me places, well, AR would give me freedom and dignity. But it would not solve the human problelm, why even those in Canada are such losers.

As someone who is studying AR and other media innovations alongside people who are innovating the AR space, I have to say that I'm incredibly excited by all the potential it holds. But it is undeniable that with higher rewards, there are higher risks. All I can hope for is as a future developer (havent decided if I want to tackle AR or not yet) is that the future looks favorably upon our creations, and that our progress doesn't impose harm. Until then, I'm desperately awaiting the moment we can develop the nerve gear often seen in many an anime. but hopefully without all the DEATH that said anime also tends to attribute with those devices. Oh a girl can dream)

I think AR visualizations have a long way to go. The only decent way to do it now is with a full-on VR headset, and that's not convenient at all. The Magic Leap headset is pretty good, guy in my office bought one, but it's essentially a VR headset. Quite heavy. As for privacy? Not really an issue. People willfully give all of their info around to companies in the name of safety and convenience. There's no reason people won't do the same for video. The only reason people may reject the idea is battery life. Otherwise they'll have no problems trading their privacy so the game score can be displayed on the wall.

This is not a risk. Your mixing 2 stories; Privacy, and AR. Firstly, AR will never model a private world in full for a long time. Google doesn't care about the floor plan of your house. However, the tech giants will track you, record you, invade you, and sell you. with your phone and interests. AR has nothing to do with this. You've connected pokemon go with a dystopian future, but the fact is we already live in a dystopian future and it has nothing to do with pokemon go. Only in that when you turn on your GPS, google and apple keep a record. Skip the fear-mongering over a silly camera gimmick.

The data utility guy should have been pressed to answer the worst case scenario of the use of our data. He is making a profit from the utility he is trying to establish. Of course he will say his best case scenario. What is their worst. And that should have been shown and/or pressed. It is a failure on the Philly D team to have shown that interview, exposing their company, without the question being asked. Even if it meant the man would have stopped the interview. It would have made the piece fair. Instead this is at the end of the day, a puff piece.
