I recall there was alot of hype around new technologies like optical computing, quantum computers that'd revolutionize computers. We also regularly discussed news on full dive VR and immortality.
But it seems like there's nothing going for those recently. Has optical computing gone the way of quantum computers, perpetually 15 years away? Also, I don't have much hope for FDVR and immortality. The VR industry is in a dire state, with no decent products, we're far, far off from anything remotely full dive. And I haven't heard any news about immortality tech either. Its just yet another pill/therapy that shows promise in mice but winds up like LK-99.
