MIT review selling a horrifying dystopia where an AI will monitor your rectum 24/7 and you repair your own fridge using AR glasses and haptics or something - Lemmy.World

I seriously wonder, do any of the folks with the “AR glasses to assist repair” thing ever actually repair anything, or do they get their ideas of how you repair stuff from computer games?

Isn’t that one of the enterprise cases where it’s actually been used?

Having schematics directly overlayed onto something I’m working on seems pretty helpful to me.

have you ever done any kind of fine-detail repair on anything? electronics, something with tiny screws, fixing paint on a decal… anything like that?

minority report floating holograms sure might be useful for this, “random-ass non specialised hardware shoved on your face” is decidedly more of a diceroll

I think he means repairs like washing machines, cars etc. It’s all very well looking up videos or pics of how to repair stuff, but often the video isn’t clear or fine quality enough

An overlaid graphic on whatever you were repairing would be fucking amazing for some of the stuff I do

but often the video isn’t clear or fine quality enough

Wouldn’t it be great if 100x the effort that didn’t go into making the video clear or fine quality enough, instead didn’t go into making relevant flying, see-through overlay decals?

Ultimately the reason it looks cool is that you’re comparing a situation of little effort being put into repair related documentation, to some movie scenario where 20 person-hours were spent making a 20-second repair fragment whereby 1 step of a repair is done.
