What does /sci/ think about Matrix-style VR? Is it impossible?

>>8451061
Matrix-style VR is only possible in virtual reality.

>>8451061
With enough computation power, I dont see any reason to suggest that it wouldn't be physically possible

>>8451163
Do you think around 2060 would be a safe bet for it to be made available to people?

Nah, during that period there will be another major economic depression. I would say around 2080.

The future, friends
You best believe our top scientists are being paid very well to research this exact problem.

I like to think that crude versions will be available by 2050. Already we have experiments inducing hallucinations via other senses.

I think the further we delve into schizophrenia, the closer we will get to a sort of selectable, recreational hallucination, which is the essence of full-sensory VR.

Do you think it will be the type of VR where we can create a sandbox and just do whatever we want and be whatever we want? This topic interests me.

>>8451200
Probably.

It'd be a great training tool, recreational, behavioral rehabilitation tool, among many other things.

>>8451200
Sure, not only a sandbox, but a sandbox inside a sandbox - if you understand what that is supposed to imply.
I think it will be available around 2060.

The guy you replied to hours ago here,
Nope, way earlier. We are closing in on making a "genuine" artificial intelligence and provided we don't get offed by it, it will accelerate technological progress even more than moore's law.

>>8451200
Eventually, yes.

The first versions will be like fully-immersive movies with limited interaction. Then multiple storylines, leading to greater and greater customization.

I always like the version from Strange Days, in which it was based on recorded experiences, which seem like they would be the start, eventually leaving to full-on Matrix style VR.

I can't wait to see how fast Even Moore's law is.

Could it continue like this? What does the science says?

I have a creeping suspicion that this there is only a single unique poster in this thread.

>>8451475
Why? Because everyone is mostly positive about it?

I personally think it will be much earlier, if you look at Ray Kurzweil's projections let's say somewhere around 2030.

>Ray Kurzweil's
you ruse me

>>8451530
Ray is a intelligent man. I will say that, but I think he's off by 10 years.

>>8451599
Ray may be intelligent, but he is also alarming far up his own ass, and garners way more attention than is warranted.

He has more in common with a Jehova's Witness, with his irrational belief that the Singularity will somehow solve the world's problems.

Don't get me wrong, I think futurism is a worthwhile pursuit, but Ray is entirely the wrong face for it.
