VR porn is going to make women obsolete. Most men do not have their emotional needs met through whatever relationship they find themselves in, and they will end up with VR waifus.

I think the problem with that is that they're still probably not going to catch widely for a while because of the "IS THE CAR ALLOWED TO KILL YOU TO SAVE SOMEONE IT MIGHT HIT??!!!" crowd.

VR seems like a definite. Even if the consumer version of the Rift is somehow a total shit-show (which I doubt, but you never know) it seems like there are enough companies getting into it that at least one of them will get it right within a year or two.

>>52350808
Deny it all you want, but there's going to be rampant VR infidelity. You would understand if you've seen VR porn, which is still amazing in its early stages. You think it's crazy that people died playing WoW? Wait until people genuinely do not want to go back to real life because virtual life is better.

>>52350904
I totally believe that it will be successful, but it will not make women obsolete.

Without the monopoly on interactive pussy, feminist women basically have nothing to offer. They don't cook or clean and they can't be trusted not to divorce you on a whim so they're not marriage material.

>>52350990
Maybe obsolete was a strong word, but it's going to lead to a situation like is currently happening in Japan. There are fewer relationships and the birth rate is declining. There will obviously be some people that prefer real women, but VR women can do things that real women can't.

Why would you want to augment reality when you can replace it?

>>52350990
Not that anon but I think purely in terms of short-term sexual gratification or whatever you wanna call it, VR totally could over time, especially once motion control and physical feedback tech become good/accurate enough.

I think THE moment though is once graphical technology gets good enough that you could make custom waifus that look realistic (or well animated if they're just 2D) with easy customization and fetish tailoring and all that without having to be an artist or programmer.

The second I'm able to log onto my PC with a headset and whatever other gear and enter a world where I have god powers and can create a custom harem and all that shit is when I'm found three weeks later rotting away dead in my chair.

>>52351045
The problem (which has already started to come up after the VR porn stuff at CES) is the asinine argument that the VR porn women can't offer consent or have any control over their situation whatsoever, so it's bad and much like shooters making people into mass murderers it's going to turn VR porn users into rapists and misogynists.

It's easy enough to just ignore because it's stupid as fuck, but all it'll take is one asshat who put on an Oculus once to go and commit a rape and then it's all "Oh well we need to police these or get rid of them to save the children!"

Driverless cars is not far away at all. It's a economically feasible technology as far as I am concerned (it's mainly a matter of sensors + processing power + algorithms, all of which are cheap or getting cheaper rapidly). The technology is almost mature. Modern cars already incorporate some basic autonomous behaviour (adaptive cruise control). I'm not sure it would be a huge breakthrough, it's more of a evolution of technology that got us to this point. Not some clever guy that figured some complex shit out. Lawmakers could be an issue though..

How is the transition from smart phones to VR gonna be anything else but a change of interface?

People only care about social approval when they're around other people. VR distances them from that, and they can instead interact with Vietnamese prostitutes that are being paid to make you feel happy.

OP, hopefully low orbit/atmospheric broadband internet access. There are about a dozen companies experimenting with it now. The ability to have a reasonably fast internet connection anywhere on the planet would be amazing. Ok, it would drastically increase shitposting as the entire third world accessed the net from feature phones but it'd be nice to have a house out in the country or in the mountains and not have to suffer with shitty geosynchronous based service with insane costs.

You expect to hand in your final paper without any citations?

>>52354883
You should already know what the divorce statistics for your country are unless you live under a rock. Common knowledge doesn't need to be cited, and if you're ignorant enough that you have seen the 50% figure, you can go verify its accuracy of your own accord.

I'm honestly fine with normies getting self-driving cars, since that way there will be less texting soccermoms out to kill you in their SUVs.

I really hope this happens. It'll cull a whole bunch of betas from even attempting to find a girlfriend, so they most likely won't ever reproduce. I'd spoiler, but I can't on /g/, it'll also leave more women for those on the cusp of beta, if they can ever get their heads out of their asses for once.

I say let the NEETs be NEETs and jerk off to their VR waifus. I doubt I'll fall into the trap and everyone will be happier because of it.

>>52351548
It's called dxm, anon. Handle with care.

Self-driving cars aren't close at all. They can't handle rain or snow AT ALL. Nor can they handle edge cases. Google just drives them around in perfect Californian conditions and has the driver take over when any difficult scenario arises. This hasn't changed in like three years.

VR is useless for anything except driving/piloting games. Right now only two senses are handled: vision and hearing. VR will only be a replacement for reality when you can actually FEEL things: the wind in your face, the grass between your toes, the water on your body, the enemy's face before your fist, the pussy on your cock. There is no technology even remotely on the horizon capable of solving this problem. You'll probably need to plug something directly into the back of your neck. A neural interface. At least 30 years out.

I suppose the most interesting stuff we'll see in the next five years are some nifty stuff with deep learning (with all your private data). Nothing game changing though. That's about it.

You do realize that driverless cars will spell the beginning of the end for freedom of movement right?

Stage 1:
They become commercially available
Stage 2:
Driverless car crashes become rampant
Stage 3:
Government implements a type of centralized service which all driverless cars must connect to so they can be synchronized with other cars in real time. Using this service becomes mandatory.
Stage 4:
Government can either shut down your car remotely or bar your access to that service if you drive where the government doesn't want you to go.
