Hi All :D 

Will Full Dive Vr cause human extinction or will Full Dive not happen at all and remain science fiction for a long time/forever?

If you don't know what full dive VR is it is something similar to Neuralink Brain-Computer Interfaces,, SAO, The Matrix.

1. Will it cause an extinction level event where everyone is in a virtual world and the real world is abandoned for good? Or will only a small percentage of people will stay in a virtual world forever such as 5% of population will enter and stay in a virtual world while the rest of us will live in real life with the occasional use of Full dive VR where people constantly switch in and out of real life.

Excluding factors such as morals and religion, eating and drinking, bodily functions, need to reproduce.

I know other factors such as Climate Change can cause human extinction but I am not talking about those

In VR people can do things such as fly, and do magic effects which can’t be done in the real world which increases their happiness. Or even people can have virtual girlfriends, kids or families.

2. Will real life physical travel still exist where maybe people want to see still the world such as someone flying from Australia to Singapore to experience the real life Singapore instead of the FDVR version of Singapore. Or will people still travel downtown in real life to visit actual friends instead of virtually

Many Thanks

    1. Maybe not for humans, but animals as pets of livestock will most probably suffer as people become more engrossed in these strange worlds. Addiction to gambling, video games and phones is already a huge concern, so imagine what this VR would do! It'll more likely be a breakdown in society and real life gatherings. Maybe the human race may decrease due to people prefering to have intercourse with anime characters, but who knows.

    2. Travelling to different countries maybe, but I would imagine tourism would take a huge hit.

    I could see this tech taking off with people searching for this alternate paradise, but all I can think of is a quote from Silent Hill 3 by Douglas Cartland:

    "A paradise for castrated sheep, maybe".
