Very well put. I have to agree that these technologies are still blooming and there are uncertainties--especially in my mind with cost associated with buying devices. Hololense for example with a $3000.00 USD developer edition isn't exactly accessible to the general community! The next 10 years however will probably be pretty exciting in the AR/VR space.
What about voice-controlled programming though? I always thought it would be nice to voice-control my OS. Not specifically for a text-editor, but as a general interface to the OS. It would be nice to move these features out of the cloud and directly onto systems. But then again, a lot of companies (amazon, microsoft, apple) probably don't want to encourage reverse-engineering of their intellectual property. We definitely need open-source variants.
Better AI chips with lower power-consumption and optimization for these types of operations will hopefully usher in a new set of productivity-enhancing applications!
