For the most part, OP, I would not even really bother with any of that stuff. I would primarily be going for knowledge acquisition and training.

Quoting: Hermit Seb I'd program a holodeck to be a nice fantasy or sci-fi mmo type of game, and network it with everyone else's holodecks so we can have grand raids together Who's to say we aren't programming our own Holodecks already. Hmmmm, hadn't thought of that. We are on limited stand by Holodecks, I guess. The deluxe version, we'd probably end up committing suicide from TOO much sensory gratification, primary of which would PROLLY be foods that we love. Too much of anything is no good. I think that is one of the things we may be here to learn. Interesting thought I have, too. I ask myself, in the tough times (which. compared to most in this world, isn't at all that tough) if, when it ends and I'm pulled out, I'll think "I want to do that again," or "I DON'T want to do that again."

Star Trek’s Holodeck: from science fiction to a new reality 50% Many of the technological advances predicted in Star Trek’s fictional universe have become reality, such as the mobile communicator and hand-held tablet computers. Others, such as tractor beams and warp drives, are still a work in progress. But what of the Holodeck? The Holodeck first appeared in The Practical Joker, a 1974 episode of the Star Trek animated series. It was depicted as a recreation room containing a simulated, alternative version of reality. It featured heavily in The Next Generation series and in the 1996 film First Contact. Anyone entering the Holodeck could interact with “solid” props and characters in any scenario based on whatever parameters they programmed. These programs are not unlike the narrative-driven, cinematic videogames we have today, such as Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption or The Witcher. The Holodeck was a narrative device that allowed Star Trek’s writers to experiment with philosophical questions in settings not available in a typical sci-fi context. It inspired several generations of computer scientists who spearheaded research in artificial intelligence, computer graphics and human-computer interaction. The convergence of these research areas has given rise to other forms of reality on the path to the construction of a real Holodeck. A real Holodeck? In virtual reality (VR) we are fully immersed in a synthetic, “virtual” version of reality, experienced through dedicated VR headsets such as the Oculus Rift or the HTC Vive. A typical example of VR is an immersive war game that puts a user in charge of a Roman army as Caesar, battling Vercingetorix’s Gaul troops at Alesia. But VR has a major drawback for some applications. Being isolated from the real world, it’s not easy to engage in social interaction or physical movement in a way that feels natural to most people. Augmented reality (AR) blends synthetic, virtual objects with the view of our physical reality. In AR, we can interact with virtual humans inhabiting our physical space or we can work with our children, for example, to build virtual LEGO houses on real tables in our own living rooms. Headsets are available that allow us to create AR in our office or lounge rooms, such as the Microsoft Hololens or the Meta. But AR headsets still suffer from several technical limitations, such as a reduced field of view. The software that lets the virtual and real worlds interact believably and naturally still needs work. Sensing humans Real-world Holodeck programs would also need the technology to sense human actions. This would provide useful information that the virtual personas inhabiting the Holodeck programs would use to anticipate our human intentions. Progress here has been fast and constant, with great improvements in speech recognition and language translation, such as Apple’s Siri, Google’s Assistant and Microsoft’s Cortana.

Look through her original drawings Great choices. I would like to have met famous Austrian painter Gustav Klimt, the subject of a very good, underrated film I saw a few years ago, the Woman In Gold. It was about a painting/artwork he created with gold leaf, a portrait of a woman whose family home was looted by the nazis later and the painting was stolen. Helen Mirren was phenomenal playing the niece of this woman who, after all odds against her nearly exhausted all efforts at getting her aunt's painting back, in an amazing turn of events succeeds in doing so. |
