That is absolutely not their website

I am looking forward to the stressors this places upon identity in the online world so we can develop something better than showing a picture of an ID card. Some sort of public/private key repository kept by licensing authorities would be a more preferable solution to me at an initial glance.

One of the aspects of the device that has been under-realized is that when mirroring your desktop/laptop display to the AVP, you can't break out its applications into different areas. You can't pull them away from the desktop window.

This is one of those things that Apple never claimed was supported, and yet there's something about that behavior that feels like such a natural intuitive implication to the technology that a lot of people feel alarmed or even cheated when they realize it's not possible (yet). It's been funny to watch the various discussion threads as people pop up talking about their shocked realization and disappointed feelings.

Update: I did realize when watching the WSJ video that the "mirrored" display actually appeared to have greater "resolution" (more pixels in height and width) than what she had on her laptop. So that's something.

It looks like someone is working on a Mac app that does exactly this, and they seem to have a functional prototype: https://x.com/TheOriginaliTE/status/1751251567641346340?s=20

Their demo of AI Q&A in the announcement video (@3:36) is totally wrong. The Pin says the April 2024 total eclipse will be best viewed from Australia and East-Timor... Except the eclipse passes over the US and will be nowhere near Australia. The answer seems to be about a partial eclipse in April 2023. How was that not fact checked???

This is especially embarrassing because their logo is literally an eclipse and it's the name of one of their color options... Seriously??
