Yes, vacation memories are nice, even if they aren't real.

Laughs in generational poverty.

This is just sad, really. Especially since the audience for this will know it's AI, asking the question of who exactly do they think they're fooling?

Sadly, distant friends and strangers on the Internet.

I want a vacation as a secret agent on Mars.

If I can’t afford a holiday, I’m definitely pissing my money up the swanny on AI.

The fact that this would never occur to me as a viable product probably shows my age. I guess?

I get the point, you can show the pictures and lie about going on vacation. And, come to think of it, the idea is akin to using filters on zoom, and even makeup, to an extent.

Hmmm, I suppose someday we'll be buying designer digital clothes to wear since everyone will have on AR glasses for every waking moment. After we get rid of the fascists again, the future is going to be weird.

Some people want the cultural value of being seen to go on vacations as the main reason to travel.

[–] Lembot_0005@lemy.lol 1 points 19 hours ago

Fascists will stay for the foreseeable future. They have nowhere to go, neither do they have any willingness to go. They feel cozy and warm where they are.

[–] Grimy@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

A better products would be pictures of me at work so I can go on vacation.

If you can't afford vications in another country, going somewhere local will be way way cheaper! But I guess it's Venice, Paris or go home.
