I imagine watching videos one day where you will not be able to tell the difference between them and reality.

Oh, that is probably less than 5 years away. Have you seen "text to video" AI technology yet?

I mean that's mostly a limitation of the display, not the internet. You can already play videos with a higher bitrate than your internet if you download them beforehand.

Yeah, but don’t you need better data speeds for the machines that make the display? You would think that the engineering of it would take a considerable amount of complex calculations to figure it out.

Not that I'm aware of. If you're using massive simulation to explore design space the limiting factor is usually computation, not transfer. And you don't have to transfer that data often, even so. We transmit way more data in media.

4k is already indistinguishable imho. The only thing lacking at this point is depth, which requires VR. Perhaps we'll be able to stream videos to our brains that are perceived as real once Neurolink tech is more advanced?

In my opinion I hope not. I feel like the brain is a territory we shouldn’t mess with. Imagine the things that can be done to your mind.
If some sort of hacker got a hold of the system, they could make you start hallucinating things. That, or if we got to this point, some sort of authority could start manipulating memories.
