edgcumbe··on The Rise of Audio AR (2024)
lol w/e the tldr is that idc. using the word "university" makes it very obvious that u have no actual experience with shipping to 2B users.

Also to put a fine point on it "context is hard" is where u lost me which is to say immediately. Context is 0.1% what is in front of u and 99% what personalization data u have curated for yourself and 0.4% location coordinate and 0.5% immediate explicit captured intent. Notice that video is missing from the equation. The actual point of AudioAR is to leave both the camera AND THE PHONE at home bc its irrelevant. Whoever is paying you should drop your ass immediately and find a better meat proxy for their slop canon.

i guess my reason for knowing that you are a moronic blowhard that likes to self suck is bc this post is about audio and you went straight to video. even in 2020 the engineers building the AR glasses at Google knew the interface was almost entirely audio bc video overlays are maddening.. if u built "AR glasses" anywhere real instead of in your basement using off the rack components then u would already know the refinement past VR led to an almost entirely monochrome interface that is designed to get out of your way as quickly as possible. You would also know that video is absolutely not required for anything in an AR experience bc everything can be sampled through RF... but u dont know any of this so I'm guessing your AR glasses were a horrible unfinished abortion that u self funded by being a complete idiot aka substandard engineer. Go back to party city where u belong.

Well then you must be a sub standard engineer bc I didnt need any of that at Google when I worked on this problem for 5 years, so maybe just STFU.
