Over "cinematic experiences".
Just watching endless cutscenes or just pushing up to walk while listening to an NPC probably counts as "passive sitting", while dodging hundreds of bullets in a gradius game is definitively active sitting.

Sadly, many people are just moving to phones.
I seem a gamedev once complain that half of the kids didn't knew how to use a keyboard, mouse OR controller anymore.
It's a pretty terrible future.

It has the options, but they're all spread all across the interface, and the auto dub thing is hidden in embedded videos unless you set em to fullscreen.
They already have the CC button that could very well be a overall language menu instead.

And it pops up a menu where i can select both subtitles and voice language, and make this button remember the setting for all videos.
Is this THAT hard?

The fact the people on top are just as dumb probably.
Not everything has to be a perfect orchestrated lelouch master plan, sometimes (many times given it's centralized power) they can just fuck up.

This creates a situation where you could use radio interference or DDOS 30 points of IQ out of the population instantly.

Normal sized or pint sized? (no the hair does not count)

AI have plenty uses, but right now there's a bunch of morons bruteforcing instead of investing in optimizing and creating new ways to use it.
This won't be a hype that will die by just being useless as NFTs were. The "crash" will happen with some random ass guy optimizing the fuck out of it and making all the hyper servers useless overnight.

If it gets to a situation where the two realistic options are starving or creating a new system that exclude the billionaires, most people will starve, but the survivors will create a new system.
It's what happens on all communist shitholes for example.
This is why you see these billionaires at least TRYING to include the population, because if it gets as bad as you say it will, they will be just abandoned to die from the machines "hallucinating".

The spirit of henry ford haunts everyone that want to turn his car only dream into something with rails and trains.
He screams at night, "MORE ROAAADS!" pretty much like the daggerfall's dead king, and even send wraths and all that.

Not happening.
Real internet is too expensive and ISPs basically profit from caching data and taking advantage of you not using all the bandwidth 24/7
They will cut this by the root before it turns into a thing because otherwise they would have to charge like $200

Most people can't afford the device, so if you write an application for it, it will just not sell very well, and i doubt you can charge $500 for an application to compensate for the lack of users.
It's like the neo geo, except without the arcade platform to support it.

Unless you make something that is an actual virtual person with all the same bits and bobs.
Basically, if you make X from megaman X, X can be a person.
LLMs are not like X.

It's a cursed tape, you watch it, and you release the source code in 7 days. you're given the grace period by the penguin to clean up the code and comment it, but you WILL release it, willingly or not.

The union busting, the killing of the franchise or turning the studio into a mobile only sweatshop?
