Agree 1000% !

(Maybe because I'm older but) IMO I think our younger people are in real trouble.

How important is purpose in life? For instance, I can see this thing as a substitute for travel or other real world adventures. Will a VR substitute ever be as good as the real thing?

Meanwhile companies like Apple Meta etc. are going hard in this direction but have they even thought or talked about the long term negative effects of living in VR almost full time? Again IMO we'll be seeing the negative effects in time. I see some upsides but I also see a lot of downsides.

I'm in the process of simplifying my life which includes scaling back on tech.
