Virtual Reality Whiz Palmer Luckey: Future Will Be ‘More Boring Than We Think’
Palmer Luckey, co-founder of Oculus VR, demonstrates the new Oculus Rift headset during the "Step Into The Rift" event in San Francisco in June 2015.
You can listen to the extended interview with Luckey at the audio link above.
In it, Luckey muses about how VR may be better for the environment, why he recommends the novel Ready Player One despite its dystopian view of the VR future, how VR is facing similar pushback to the one faced by rock 'n' roll and swing dancing in their time and what ethical questions are raised by the use of VR for journalism.
