I interviewed at Magic Leap a few years ago and it was never explained to me how they were differentiating themselves from competitors or what their valuation was based on.

I declined the position based on the fact that their options were already diluted without a product or revenue stream.

Maybe one day I will regret that decision when they get bought by Apple, but I just don't see it happening.

I think their hope currently is to get bought for a boatload of money, but even if they are, it's hard to see they would keep their valuation. Personally I think of Magic Leap sorta like Juicero: overfunded, overpromised, and thought the market would magically appear at launch.
