The AR stuff is what I've wanted since the first Oculus dropped -- being able to remove all the obvious parts of technology from my physical spaces (the multiple monitors, the computer tower, all the cables and whatnot) in favor of a thing I put on my head and do real work? Yes please. Fuck gaming -- I want my life back, and to have work shoved off into a weird phantom realm where I don't have to think about or look at it when I'm off the clock.

That's a good point -- it hadn't occurred to me that "people who sell a lot of music/are getting a lot of play" might not be a category of fame in the near future. Being able to generate films/books/etc. end-to-end at will would do the same thing to a lot of other categories of media celebrity -- close that off as a path to fame.
Which... huh. What the heck are people going to be famous for?
I'm increasingly convinced that the pop music of the future will consist entirely of mediocre or terrible songs written by real people -- that the flaws and fuck-ups of lousy artists will suddenly seem like magic when compared to an endless stream of algorithmically generated, pristine computer bullshit.
I’ve been a Kagi user since launch, and it has completely replaced everything for me except image searches. It’s the best $10 I spend each month.
