The Quantum Feedback Loop was pleased to welcome back Dr. Louis Rosenberg, an engineer, researcher, inventor, and entrepreneur who was a pioneer in virtual reality technology in the early 1990s. Louis speaks about his new book, Our Next Reality, in which he and co-author Alvin Graylin present the benefits and risks of virtual reality.

Louis traces VR's development from early days to present, when the technology's combination with AI is quickly enabling it to create immersive experiences that consumers may not be able to differentiate from reality. As Meta, Google, and other companies race to commercialize VR, Louis makes a number of recommendations for laws that could protect our immersive rights and help to realize the many benefits that VR could deliver in the very near future.

For more on Louis and his company Unanimous AI, which is developing technology to connect groups and amplify their collective intelligence modelled on the biological principle of swarm intelligence, listen to our discussion with Louis in early 2024 at https://rss.com/podcasts/quantum-feedback/1402711/.
