In the Beginning: In a not-so-distant future, reality could become obsolete. The Google Glass 7.0, with their ability to literally reshape the world around us, have plunged society into an eternal fantasy.
Article: What if you could escape your boring and uninspiring reality simply by putting on a pair of glasses? That’s exactly what the latest groundbreaking product from Google promises, the Google Glass 7.0, which offers the ability to redesign your environment at will.
The new version of these augmented reality glasses not only allows you to modify the appearance of your immediate surroundings but also to change the people around you. Have you always wanted your boss to look like a cartoon character? Done. Want your apartment to resemble a medieval castle? Easy. The possibilities seem endless.
“Reality is overrated. With Google Glass 7.0, we can now live in a world created by our imagination. Technology has reached a point where it can offer each individual a fully personalized reality,” says Jens Benthien, a fictitiously quoted technology expert from the University of Berlin.
However, this pervasive fantasy is not without side effects. The emergence of an ‘Addiction to Alternate Reality’ is now a major concern. People seem to be losing their ability to distinguish between the real world and the fanciful world created by their glasses. Moreover, the desire to live in a world crafted by their imagination appears to further isolate individuals.
While the long-term implications of this immersive technology remain to be seen, it is clear that we have crossed a new threshold in our relationship with reality. Thus, as our society continues to define and redefine reality, one question remains: when technology allows us to create our own world, what place is left for the real?
