That sounds like a hellish dystopia.

Probably not as dystopian as the pornography industry is going to get with AR, VR, dolls, etc.

There can be good utility for ads without being dystopian. Like furniture sets you want buy to preview in your new empty apartment - not items you are totally uninterested in buying. I'm sure there will be countless ideas to get ads on AR pretty soon that will be unaggressive and jive well psychologically

The day you can point your AR goggles at your SO and turn them into the anime/fandom/porn character of your choice, is the day AR porn gets its killer app.

It's also the day the doll industry blows up (no pun intended) - because if you need AR to be turned on by your SO, there'll be a lot of separations.

ya but at least ar can put whatever you want over the doll!
