Yes, of course.
Wow. If all the trillions only produces that small of a diff... that's shocking. That's the sort of knowledge that could pop the bubble.

"The technology is essentially a failure" is in the headline of this article. I have to disagree with that. For the first time in the history of the UNIVERSE, an entity exists that can converse in human language at the same level that humans can.
But that's me being a sucker. Because in reality this is just a clickbait headline for an article basically saying that the tech won't fully get us to AGI and that the bubble will likely pop and only a few players will remain. Which I completely agree with. It's really not that profound.
This is an advertisement. And it would be a better advertisement if it started by actually explaining what the products are, instead of diving immediately into a woe is me pitch and then abruptly pivoting to black friday deals.

You mean like VorpX?
I mean like an official Valve fork of VorpX that works just as well as Proton. I have not had the best experiences with VorpX. But it becomes a much easier problem if you have standardized hardware and software.

Not sure if this is what you had in mind: Projected 2D views into a 3D "movie screen" environment is a feature of the Frame, per my understanding of their marketing, and of early reviewers' experiences.
If you meant, "do they take 2D render frames from videogames and convert them into pseudo-3d or actual 3d where the user can tilt their head to see a different view INTO the 2D game's universe, e.g. see behind bushes just by tilting head", then "no".
I mean, you don't need to go THAT far, regular 3DTVs didn't have that capability. But the possibility is there for fixed-position 3D.
This isn't much of a news article, more of just a profile. But yeah, the MGS4 vision for the world is slowly coming to reality.

The Steam Frame shows a lot of promise in terms of letting people play games on a massive virtual screen. But with the hardware, even more is possible. I hope they are working on a compatibility layer that allows 2D games to be rendered in 3D, like the 3D TV of the 2010s. In my opinion that would be a killer app.
Theory: the naming of this product is strategic. Google's goal is to push something else above "Google antitrust" in the autocomplete.
> The most important thing is to maximize enjoyment
Is it better to REALLY enjoy a short life or mostly enjoy a long life?
That's a question that only you can answer! For me personally I'd rather live a long life and see where technology and society goes. For a guy like Hunter S. Thompson, for instance, the other choice was preferable.
I think it's a lot simpler than what you describe. The most important thing is to maximize enjoyment. Obviously a lot of factors go into this but at the end of the day the end goal is to enjoy your life as much as possible.
It depends a lot on how you're wired, of course. Enjoyment maximization for some people might be getting married, having a bunch of kids, being the head of a household. For others it might be accomplishing career goals or financial milestones. For others it might be adventure, to seek out new experiences, etc.
The biggest trap you can fall into is living life by the standards of others instead of your own enjoyment. That's what would likely lead to regret. I'd say to some extent (for me at least) there is a local optima to be reached where you aren't the subject of ridicule by others, but beyond that you need to take a firm stance towards identifying what brings you the most enjoyment and pursuing that relentlessly.
