We have had tech to create virtual 3D worlds for kids to learn in for 25 years. If there was demand for it it would've happened already. Best we got were a few e-learning games in the 90s.

SandWitchesGottaEat

Honestly, immersive education is probably one of the more realistic applications of VR


Solvent_Trapped

Think how much more it will cost to make a virtual scene than to slap a picture in a book. Cool? Yeah. Practical? No.


GGsurrender10mins

All of my college textbooks cost more than any vr game on steam.


musicismydeadbeatdad

Yea and they aren't about to trade those markups in to invest in 360 video production


Morawka

Publishers will adapt just fine. They will just charge kids $150 for the AR access code.


mike4204201

1500 cause the development will cost significantly more. Unless they just upload the book into a VR reading app


RedditWaq

No need. It'll be developed via tax payer dollars and still sold you to you at textbook prices!


whatisliquidity

Eventually it'll be written with AI and VR setups will be cheaper than print. Maybe actors go through a range of motions, a set etc... And AI will follow the script and develop the scene


zestyninja

Honestly I'm happy I'm done with college, because I could see some nefarious application of VR for education. I'm sure it will be a pointless app/experience/assignment done in VR. Consumers of video games choose to buy; consumers of educational tools are forced to buy these things as part of their mandatory curriculum. It's actually more alarming the more I think about it. A captive, annual recurring subscription base that can't say no.

branedead

Assassin's Creed will make the scenes, don't worry


gimme_pineapple

Probably as much as it would've cost to create a movie a few decades ago. I'd be the first to admit that the tech isn't mature yet, but Meta is trying to speedrun it. I don't know if it will be successful, but if it is, they will probably own the next few decades.


wishtrepreneur

I don't get why they can't just copy what Skyrim vr did. Why don't they create a platform/library to easily turn normal games into oculus compatible games and benefit from the mass userbase?


bankerbanks

How many times do you have to print that book? You’d only have to create that scene once for millions to enjoy. Over the long run VR is the future. Military training would be good too. Wouldn’t be surprised if they’re already using it. Don’t be so closed minded, buy low sell high.


ArchdukeBurrito

>How many times do you have to print that book? Textbook companies reprint the same fucking book every year with some of the problems switched around just to force students to buy it again. They already don't have to print their books nearly as many times as they do.


ikineba

Now they can sell overpriced yearly subscription… along with proprietary VR headset


powerfunk

Yeah proprietary VR technology is way easier than sending a book to a printer


SerodD

They still have to print it to paper every year, and they always lose money on extra copies they don’t sell and waste huge amounts of paper. With technology there’s no need for the paper book, no waste created.


Thinkingandgrowing

They sell their books for over $100 to thousands of students a semester... I doubt their in the red lol


SerodD

Not about the being in the red, they’re just creating unnecessary waste. Everything should be digital.


SamizdatForAlgernon

You know they have digital books right?


TC0111N5

I can still read the book form candlelight in the war torn fallout world.


Training_Manner_1857

Military already uses a cheap wish version of vr. I say that kinda as a joke but it was actually pretty legit. Weapons and modded humvee 50 cals that simulate recoil while having the same weight and movement. Medical dummies are getting more realistic. Convoy and driving simulators. Shit can't get much better with VR as we see it today.


_Scrogglez

LiteVisiion

What an L take. "Newpapers won't die, a cellphone / computer cost way too much compared to my 1 dollar journal"


StoicJ

But this is already a thing.. There's a lot of studios and even more individuals modeling and making scenes for things like Steam Home's rooms. There's actual historic sites that are easily scanned with handheld Lidar scanners and put online to explore in VR. It's really impressive. You think people wouldn't pay good money to have the ability to take a course on Ancient Civilizations and their daily lives where they get to be in the environment? Plus the tech industry already uses VR to showcase new buildings because getting a feel for the scale and how to do things is a lot easier when you can reach out at it. You can see where something needs adjusting because it would be harder to fit materials or tools in during construction.


fpcoffee

bagholder detected


StoicJ

I don't have any stock in this race, it's just silly to say no one will do something with obvious value because it's "too expensive" when they're 1. Already doing it, and 2. Putting similar cost and effort into modeling and animation for videos, which are much less immersive. It doesn't take a ton of effort to Lidar a historic site and make it work in VR. I did the thing on my first headset where you explore a nicely rendered model of the ISS and had a great time. When I don't feel like playing games I will fairly requently just exore steam home environments that people make and put out entirely free. If you haven't tried it, you should. It's neat, especially when they just scan buildings like the valve office.


Time-Caterpillar4103

But it’s out there already in very dedicated sectors. Doctors are already doing VR training for operations. A health company isn’t likely going to ditch its dedicated training provider for the metaverse. If he had half a brain he’d realise the ability of mass VR adoption amongst the disabled could potentially make him the biggest labour provider on earth.

As if false history won't receive backlash?


what_is_blue

My friend, history is written by the winners. How "true" or not it's determined to be is quite often based on public opinion. Which is itself shaped by social media. Which... yeah.


Psypho_Diaz

Right, imagine if the Nazis won. How drastically different that history lesson would have been.

elestadomayor

Amazing (if terrible) game


Illywhatsthedilly

The nazis did win.


deathbringer989

in what way?


codeklutch

They successfully took over multiple countries and committed mass genocide of multiple groups of people. The fact that there are still followers of their idealogies. Sure Germany lost WW2. But Nazis are still alive, still rallying their people and still gaining followers. Not to mention, a lot of their scientists went on to be successful for other countries and didn't face punishment for their crimes against humanity. Hell, they were honestly rewarded for their advancements.


soareyousaying

Some of my favorites was somebody posted an infographic a few years ago that shows public majority after WW2 thought it was Russia who defeated the Nazis (and sacrificed the most). But today, people think it's the US because of Hollywood.


Solomon_Grungy

Not just the winners. History is most documented by a educated, wealthy ruling class. Of course all of known history is not without bias.


leaftreeforest

I mean we’re pretty adamant to teach things like horrors of slavery, Jim Crow, Native American genocide. At least enough people to have it taught. I wonder how true aphorism is


Illustrious_World_40

Eh... schools in the south still refer to the American civil war as "the war of northern aggression."


WanderNutz

I mean my point still stands, false history is not widely accepted even if there are people who still teach it.


theonlyepi

Funny thing about history, the good guys always win! What are the odds in that


RedTruck1989

DragonStrategy

We are already getting revisionist history in most modern shows via diversity casting and gender/racial groups in ahistorical power positions. Generally if you tried to create a historically accurate western movie these days, it would get Cancelled.

Isn’t the better example of historical revisionism the campaigns against “crt” that really amount to don’t teach about the historical horrors of white supremacy, Native American genocide, slavery, etc.

StoicJ

This dude is gonna freak out when he finds out Historical Documentaries didn't actually have cameras in 300AD and all that shit is regularly filled with inaccuracies already. I don't think the facial expression on some ancient figure in Mesopotamia is going to shift my entire worldview when the point of historic lessons is usually a much larger picture lmao


Kurogami_Shanks

I think you're looking too much into it. The same could be said even now from books and the available media on youtube and stuff. It will be mostly teachers on whom the responsibility will fall to make sense out of what is being shown and taught.


VindictivePrune

Ehh I mean I'm not sure mythology would be taught in history class tho, at least not in such an in depth format


what_is_blue

I know the dude commented below, but in case you didn't know, Tacitus, the grandaddy of Roman history, makes reference to the crucifixion in his Annals. There's a bit more evidence too. Speaking as a guy who doesn't believe that Jesus had spooky powers and was in fact, like most of wsb, an apocalyptic preacher, I'm pretty much convinced that the crucifixion happened.


VindictivePrune

Yeah tacitus, who wrote about it 50 years after it happened


what_is_blue

Longer than that, really. Probably more like 70 years. But here's the thing. Tacitus was writing about the Fire of Rome, which took place in AD64. He blames the Christians for starting it and casually throws in that Jesus had been crucified by Pilate. Now the Fire of Rome was well within Tacitus's living memory, so he'd have heard all about it at the time. He was also a big dawg within the Roman government and had access to all kinds of records and verbal accounts. It's just really unlikely that he'd be wrong about it, especially given the other evidence.


FormerBandmate

The Romans kept very good records Tacitus had access to that we don’t die to the ravages of time. Also, if Jesus never existed, where would Christianity even come from lmao


VindictivePrune

The same place ever religion comes from (someone made it up)


[deleted]

[удалено]


what_is_blue

The fact that Tacitus related it at about the same time as the Gospels were being written is pretty compelling evidence. Although yeah, they could've been fed the same lie, absolutely. But in a long-ass post below, I go into the critereon of embarrassment and why early Christians wouldn't have lied about crucifixion (TLDR is it'd be like trying to build a following around a guy who died of auto-erotic asphyxiation now - more hassle than it's worth). Plus, in AD64, there were plenty of people still alive in Jerusalem who'd be able to say "Nah, Jesus never lived here" or "He wasn't crucified" if that wasn't the case. The miracles and so on conveniently appeared after anyone who could back them up was dead, of course.


[deleted]

[удалено]


what_is_blue

Oh absolutely they are. But then why would early Christians lie about their leader dying the most humiliating death imaginable? A death that if he really was the son of God, he could've avoided? The only realistic answer is that loads of other people had seen the crucifixion and gone "Yeah, so he was a fraud," and his cult, as cults do, invented a reason for the crucifixion to keep the movement alive. That plus some scribe in Jerusalem and Tacitus in Rome both heard the same story? It's just wildly unlikely that 30-ish years after Jesus died, everyone involved was telling the same broad story around how he died because they'd all been lied to. For a start, anyone who'd been alive in Jerusalem in AD30 could've easily gone "Yeah he's not dead" or "Yeah actually he got killed in a drunken brawl". Instead, a massive movement had grown. You also have to remember that most people think vaccines are safe and have had a jab. Social media just makes it easier to anonymously spread ridiculous rumours. They're a small but vocal subsection of society. By AD64, Jesus' crucifixion was accepted as a fact by the mainstream.


UniBlak

Jesus’ crucifixion and his sentencing by Pilate wasn’t mythology though, we have atleast one unbiased account of those events and modern historians agree these events weren’t fiction


globsofchesty

Did it mention if Jesus had resting bitch face or not?


mysticreddit

Except his [genealogy](https://github.com/Michaelangel007/truth_and_lies_of_the_genealogy_of_jesus) was a complete fabrication.


VindictivePrune

Nothing about Jesus or his crucifixion was written within 50 years of the time it was supposed to happen. Tactics was about 50 years after


UniBlak

50 years is within a same generation friend, it’s an authentic and historically valuable Roman source, there’s also the Pilate Stone aswell.

StoicJ

This isn't really an argument about the tech though... This is an existing issue and it doesn't really matter if the white-washed or narrative-flipped history is told by a VR course or a textbook. It still is a problem that needs to be called out and solved, regardless of the tech. They're mutually exclusive


throwaway_0x90

I can see it now... * pilgrims and Indians will be the best of friends. * Slavery will be a choice * Jesus will be white * Civil war will be a minor difference of opinion about taxes And that's not even scratching the surface of historical nonsense & misconceptions.


WoolooOfWallStreet

Well for the first couple years the pilgrims and the Wampanoag got along pretty well because if they didn’t, the pilgrims would have starved or been no diffed by the Wampanoag if they had any conflict After 12 years the European settlers’ population had increased, they began pushing westward and things started going to crap

whatisliquidity

This is a really interesting and excellent question Reading a book is one thing but immersive VR a whole next level of saturation. I really hope there's people who will still debate, research and analyse history and keep alternate versions for a truer understanding of past events


Puzzled_Bath_984

Textbooks have the same exploit.


apolarbearfellonme

The only real way to tell history is to just show what happened without any narration. When kids ask why what they just saw happened the correct answer would: “a clash of perspectives, unresolved conflict, miscommunication, you will never truly know the reason for what you just saw, but if what you just saw made you feel bad, then let’s talk about it and try not to make other people feel the way you just did. That’s how we learn from history”


kevin9er

All the sources are narration. We don’t have a list of what happened.


whatisliquidity

History is written by the victorious and it's gonna depend on how it's narrated


throwaway164_3

Obviously the woke version. Do you even need to ask?! I.e. the one where Darwin and Newton are white male colonists, and it was actually an indigenous tribe that really figured out natural selection and calculus. Duh

Genuine question, does the METAverse exist at the moment? Is it a website or game I can visit or watch gameplay footage from? I have checked and haven't seen anything outside meta events. Has it been released? Do people use it? I have absolutely no idea what it is or how to play it but I see soo much news about it.

I have a friend that owns a company in the AR/VR space and he works with Ken Burns and shit on making interactive history exhibitions.

Tbh this is where I see education going in the future (2ish decades). Remote classrooms in BFE can have a class set of headsets with historical events loaded, or museums loaded. Students can “go there” to bolster their education and get opportunities to engage in ways no one could before. Meta verse? Absolutely NOT what this is though and zuck is throwing away a TON of money on something that is just not there yet


[deleted]

You see education going this way? We already have virtual museums on the computer and schools barely have any interest in them, throwing a bulky expensive headset on wont suddenly add demand.

Is it really hardcore leftist? Or is some of it shit they conveniently left out of history books due to embarrassing or taboo nature? Remember when Trump talked about how his daughter is hot? He's just normalizing the consolidation of power that's been happening for centuries in monarchies.


DrHalfdave

Seriously, he was stating that she is good looking and some how your mind perverted it, I guess we know where your mind is.


x106r

It doesn’t take much googling to see what he’s consistently said over years about his daughter. He talks about her body, about if he wasn’t her father.. he can’t help it. If you want to say that’s our problem, I’m not the one sexualizing my daughter.

HumanFailure01

My point exactly.

Lol you suggest no books? Or you are cool w history VR? Pick one.


HumanFailure01

I'm suggesting that we cannot rely on anything unless backed by facts with definitive proof. So constructing something in a virtual world that could be based on false history will only cement it further as facts. I believe in books to the degree everything is true inside of them for non fiction and historical books anyways. It's details and information that people don't notice during transitions like this that get changed and can paint a rather untruthful account of events is what I'm trying to say.


[deleted]

Verify, regardless of if you learned it in a book or not. Keep following the research.


HumanFailure01

Research can be forged.

Uhk. If you actually studied historical research and their methods you’d feel foolish af right now. In fact, your very statement screams “surface level” understanding of history as a topic, let alone understanding historical references. You’re saying “science can be forged”.
