Of course he would think it is a better product. Most CEOs are going to convince themselves their product is better than the competition. Both devices have there place.

Unfortunately that is probably true, it is $4K. But this will get to a price point that will make it ubiquitous, may take 5 years. But if it helps, I've worked pretty much everyday for 12 hours a day grinding it out as an entrepreneur since 1994.

It's like comparing apples and potatoes. Different use cases, both have value. I have every device known to man, including hololens1 and 2. The big difference for me is I have had the Apple Vision Pro on for 4 hours straight, doing real work, super productive!

Truly amazing technology. The downside is one meaningful (not sure how to define that) mistake will be seen as a major issue. Now I’m sure we are already at a point where humans make more meaningful mistakes than FSD, but the expectations of FSD are much higher than humans.

There is many ways to build a company as an entrepreneur. There is no right way to do it. I’ve been involved in creating 6 companies, some have been boot strapped, some raised capital. There are many circumstances to consider that may push you into one direction or the other. How
The next time you think that you can't build anything worthwhile without venture capital, remember that Midjourney is doing $200M ARR and is probably worth ~$10B and never raised $1 from anyone.

Exactly. I have very objective answer which device is better without even comparing one feature.
Apple Vision Pro is a better device for people that want to stay in the Apple ecosystem.
For those that don’t, Quest3 is the better device.
So they are both the better device!

Not sure about this. There is beauty in those repetitive tasks to getting in the flow and feeling a sense of purpose. As long as “to be human” at the core provides a sense of purpose, otherwise it just leads to mass depression.
