Thanks for sharing!

If it gives you any sense of hope, I was actually paraphrasing Carmack himself as part of the source of "we already know how". I believe from a Quakecon Keynote (I'm not sure what year unfortunately, the context was PBR and approximations).

The real thing I'm not certain of is do we want to live in a world where we have the ability to create in realtime video content entirely indistinguishable from reality.

The entertainment and simulation benefits would obviously be amazing. The ability to recreate phenomenon we can observe in science but can't see, etc.

But there is also the possibility to weaponize that. Seeing is believing and what do in a future where we can't trust anything we see.

Part of me is glad we don't have to ask ourselves these questions yet.
