The window of opportunity already closed for AR/VR. AI dealt the death blow.

What do you mean? AI will enable better AR/VR experiences, or AI will obsolete them?

  • Simpler than that: AI co-opted the hype machine and the buzzword gurus, and therefore the investor money.

    • Pretty much, and it's a shame because AR has so much potential. Our company has started using a AR product in our quality control. It really doesn't take using it for long to realize the potential, being able to overlay a CAD model over the physical finished project is incredible and offers a lot of time savings. Unfortunately the most advanced AR device on the market is over 5 years old so you can really feel the software brush up against the hardware limitations.
