Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 гру 2019
- On February 20th, 2019 Jak Wilmot wore a VR headset for 168 hours. With the goal of researching how society will adopt this technology, the psychological effects of prolonged use, and how one can be productive inside the simulation.
Jak Wilmot is an online content creator & co-founder of Atlanta based studio, Disrupt. His experimental documentaries showcase the relationship between human psychology and technology. His most recent experiment, a Week in VR, explores daily life inside a simulation. Jak Wilmot is an online content creator & co-founder of Atlanta-based studio, Disrupt.

Thank you for having me, TedX Vienna :)
Can you make a documentary for Netflix or UA-cam red. With a group of people that don't know each other passing a week in VR . But always doing things together. And at the end they meet in real life
I hope the best for you! That was such a great speech! It really made me look at VR in a whole different way.
i love your videos man ❤️❤️
Merry Christmas
You did a nice job in the talk, and merry chirstmas
Little does the audience know..... he had the entire tedtalk written out in his headset
I thought that too, lol.
Me too
I thought timer
Carl Birge i thought pass through mode
that actually pretty smart
This would be a completely different talk if he'd been playing vrchat.
The LPD wants to know your location
He did play vrchat at one point, he made a video on his channel. Search "Disrupt"
Lol he did
Ugandan knuckles would have been his thunder buddy.
He can come have some VRC drinky times with us! I'll show him a thing or two. ;)
This man ended his Ted Talk with a meme and I don't think anyone in the audience realized it
I was sitting there like: "HE SAID IT, HE SAID THE THING"
@@spider_sf Same!
"Thank you for coming to my TED talk"
I don't get it, what meme?
I'm confused. What was the meme?
“Lemme pause Fortnite real quick.”
Audience: **cold, dead silence**
The entire ted talk: dead silence
Well, Fortnite does have a singleplayer mode. It started as a singleplayer/coop game and only added Battle Royale after PUBG success.
@@shadowscall7758 What does that have to do with a quiet crowd?
@@dmac2899 Because everyone in the comment section is thinking that since Fortnite is only a Battle Royale that you cant pause it.
@@shadowscall7758 Ok, I see what you mean now :)
This guy needs to voice act
He does the voice overs for his channel- Disrupt
William Novak I watched a few of his videos, most notably his week in VR and his day in Minecraft VR. His voice kinda reminds me of hiccup from How to Train Your Dragon
This guy has much more to give the world than voice acting. I hope he uses his talents on the things that make him truly happy,
He used to do minecraft movies, so he does have that under his belt
He would be a perfect Cayde 6 in Destiny
I am a video game environment artist and I bought my first VR headset just over a year ago.
I bought it for my Dads 80th birthday. I wanted to remake a cabin my family went to every Christmas, a cabin that no longer exists. All the details would be there, dust floating through God rays, a TV so full of static that the picture was barely visible and colored metal drinking cups that no longer were colored after my brother washed them in the washing machine, stealing their color.
The day came when Dad put the headset on and he was transported back in time, with all the details of the cabin he remembered, and then the memories came flooding back.. but this time there was a huge birthday cake on the kitchen table and finally a HAPPY BIRTHDAY fireworks display that lit up the entire sky. For a man who always thought games were a waste of time he loved it. haha.
VR is an extremely powerful tool that I love and I cant wait to see how it evolves.
That is awesome !
Stories like this need to be more widely circulated. Warms my heart
Wowowowow man God bless u, crazy gift😍😍
this is the most wholesome thing i think i have ever read
Wow man, that was absolutely beautiful to read, and party experience through it. You must be a fantastic son.
The mad lad actually said "Thank you for coming to my TED talk"
I dont get it😅
@@alexsvedegard Issa meme
@@thomas-w8948 what meme? I am not familiar with it
Alex it’s something said after somebody rants on a social media platform
@@supernukey419 well the meme came from people actually saying it after Ted talks
100 years from now, the Ted Talk will be "What I learned from spending a week in real life."
It's depressing
@@closerrl9851 no, Its n
Better
More like in 20 yrs or less
100 years from now, really? What is this, the goddamn bronze age? Will it be another 5000 years until we invent flying cars too?
It sucks
I remember, the first UA-cam video I watched from this guy was him explaining his after thought of his experiment. I just watched it all over again but in a Ted talk.
And you still enjoyed it.
I like the one where Vrchat people talk about life. GG
Damn the audience sleeping on some good jokes from my boy jak
We are silent when people speak here in Austria. And the jokes only are the begin and end.
168 hrs later my first words after taking off the VR headset... "I know kung fu".
I know this steak doesn't exist. I know that when I put it in my mouth, the Matrix is telling my brain that it is juicy and delicious.
Show me.
Until I read the other comments I thought this was a “Chuck” reference, the Matrix makes more sense
Lmao
you try to break a board of wiid appart with your bare hands. you just broke your pinkie and fall unconcious from the pain, while you accidentally activated the stove. your appartment beginns to burn while you are unconcious, you go up in flames. you died .
I love disrupt, his videos art put together with such art and finesse.
I was gonna bash this dude for being so cringe, than I realized i watched his 1 week in vr video and that he just dummed it down for the ted talk
Lol
No one cared who I was... until I put on the headset.
Lol
Lol
Everyone sees a humanoid hotdog, but what lies beneath the avatar is a forever mistery.
So proud to see my boy jak doing a ted talk
Yeah! I remember when he did that stream
Your boy?
Head Vodon lol didn’t mean much by it, just a long time fan
This is the most comfortable I've ever seen someone on stage.
It's because in his headset he's in his apartment🤣🤣
Caroline Ramos yup the power of vr
Probably because he’s using the headset to hide behind to ease his speech giving anxieties.
this guy totally killed his ted talk and the audience just sat there like 😐
usually staying quiet unless jokes are said is a sign of respect so they respected and enjoyed his ted talk
Overburned Toast but for his jokes it was just awkward silence
@@laurenl0420 I see people say that in a lot of ted talks. I think maybe the smaller laughs arent picked up. If the mics were SUPER boosted, then the claps at the beginning and end would be insane
@@laurenl0420 that's because the jokes were really bad
its how European people are. silence is a sign of respect here, while in an English speaking country it would be a sign of disrespect.
it's how Europeans are.
still waiting for TED to actually come out and do his talk i'm not impressed...
jameshob what do you mean?
like when is ted actually going to Talk
Magma Creamy lmao T E D 🤦🏻♂️ the channel T E D
OOOOOH LMAO
@@magma5267 He makes a channel about him talking and he hasn't said a word once...
just got a headset, spent 19 hours in it, and now my hands feel like they need to be recalibrated
Same
That's normal at first. Its a trip. Havent felt that feeling in a couple of years but I remember that.
Bombah after about 50 hours you just naturally flip between real life and vr mode
I used to have that
bruh that joke at the start was so dead
It was funny for me
Should I be worried...?
Martin PK it’s cuz u are all uncultured this man clearly started and ended his speech with a meme on purpose (pausing an online game) and “thanks for coming to my ted talk”
Was it a joke tho...???
David Rotariu as far as I know there is no vr fort nite so unless he was playing fortnite on a digital screen it was a joke
i wish that every ted talk would start with the presenter playing fortnite
Chicken Bean
Smart!
Einstein said: “I never remember anything I can look up.”
As opposed to using a teleprompter :P
😯
genius
I didn't even think of that!
He actually had his script in the headset
Maybe if so that’s genius
Opmaster Clan not really, common sense
I think the test scores can also be explained by the *novelty* of a VR experience or a VR lesson. We tend to recall information, concepts and experiences best when we do our learning in the context of something new, something unfamiliar and surprising. There's a certain salience to it which it might not owe to VR itself.
Yes, that's also a thing, but generally speaking learning something by gaming has a huge potential.
10 minutes in Kerbal Space Program can help you understand and visualize orbital mechanics better than a 2 hour lesson on the math behind it.
if I'm not mistaken its been shown even prior to vr that remembering information via a more "hands-on" type of thing is easier than with just words. I'm not sure what they were doing in vr, but I doubt it was just being shown words in vr, I'm guessing there was some kind of interaction they were able to do that conveyed the same information.
He’s a great speaker
Bram Adams ikr
*reader lol
@@bongobliss5795 Is he not speaking what he's reading? lol
@@ThePandaKingFTW good point, but isnt speaking with real-time reference considered reading lol
@@bongobliss5795 almost all amazing public speakers are all reading some kind of teleprompter, so I'd still count him as a great public speaker
We'll be able to attend virtual Ted Talks in the future
This is actually a fact
the question is, would we have to pay for it. on the one hand, we aren't taking up space in a hall, but on the other hand were watching content at a similar level of quality directly in-between UA-cam and reality
@@alex1.2 They already have virtual movie theaters that play actual movies (I think it partnered with paramount or something) and the tickets are like $3, if you have an alright headset its actually pretty sick because its movies that are actually out now, no people talking and distracting you, and you can go with your friends.
@@ThePandaKingFTW yes I am aware
Alex Adams Think about how expensive planes are, and now think about how expensive plane rides are, and then think about how expensive a movie ticket is. Virtual lobbies will cost less than physical buildings. Learn to imagine the future, not just think about your mundane life being replicated.
Mathmaticians are going to be using that to draw on rooms full of thousands of white boards
As a person who writes math on whiteboards, that sounds awesome.
@@coder0xff I've actually already watched a pair of people doing exactly just that.
@@coder0xff Nope, blackboards are obviously superior.
No longer will we be trapped in the bounds of reality. INFINITE WHITEBOARDS
You use a real blackboard or whiteboard for tactile feedback, VR uses motion tracking to make a scrollable blackboard with tabs.
I love this guy. He starts with “I gotta pause fortnite real quick, one sec” and ends with “thanks for coming to my ted talk”
I really like Jak and I really hope people start believing in him because all the drama these past couple years has mostnlikely been discouraging
i cant belive you did a ted talks jak this is amazing love you :)
The dood said lemme pause fortnite real quick and no one laughed, i feel so bad
And also on 11:09
Well, Fortnite does have a singleplayer mode. It started as a singleplayer/coop game and only added Battle Royale after PUBG success.
Shadowscall775 what
Shadowscall775 Absolutely no one is concerned with the ability to pause or not pause fortnite, they’re speaking about the fact that not a single person laughed at his joke.
@@ollifa8675 No one laughed because you CAN pause Fortnite if you are playing the singleplayer/coop form (which ruins the joke) or they didn't get it. Either way, it fell flat.
This is the best invention mankind ever made. Imagine doctors still learning in school could use virtual technology to test out actually doing a difficult operation on video over and over before attempting the real thing, so many more err examples.
That "err" tells everything
Think more in the lines of going a med house, scan ur card and let a doctor operate with AI assistance while he is actually still at home with his goggles on. The only reason we would need to leave house is if we physically need something we don't have at home. Like surgery equipment being at the place of surgery. The rest all VR. If its a simulation of the real world, why leave if it's way more efficient. Need to watch movie? Work? Do anything? We'll leave our humanity behind pretty quick if it means safety and pleasure.
Because the thing you are saying now, they already do at the best schools.
shane phelan a lot of jobs already teach by physical simulations (like nuclear power plants having separate simulation facilities to run tests in) so this is a great extension of that idea that uses less resources and being more accessible to greater numbers of people, it’ll be interesting to see how it’s implemented for good and bad in the future
I am very interested in how VR affects the brain.
@G O at least zombie will stay in home instead of walking the streets
Yeah me too. I'm hoping to get one in the new year. I haven't raised the funds yet though. I long for that feeling
@Shane David : That's smart. Because you won't learn anything from a guy like in this video who is obviously unwilling to even look at the negatives and potential dangers of something he is otherwise clearly *only* here to advocate for. The most interesting part of this video, and the most revealing, is that it's titled _"What I learned.."_ when obviously that was never his intent.
I can say, as a functional father of 3 and husband of 1 and full time bread winner, that I have over 2000 hours in VR over 3 years and it has been a net positive in my and my families life.
Just how would you control this setting to be able to measure the negatives? Just treat this like a case study about VR experiences and not a definitive study into the effects of VR on humans
Reading the speech from inside the visor would make giving speeches so much easier than reading through a teleprompter. I believe not seeing the audience would make you much more comfortable.
Oral tales and cave paintings become books and paintings become movies and TV become Mobile platforms and computers becomes AR and VR. They are just tools that humans use.
Yep, gotta turn them ancient art pieces into machine guns.
I liked the conclusion.. it's like explaining internet in 1990. Now internet is everything everyone everywhere ..I have been reading this book called 21 lessons for 21st century, it really makes you visualize HUGE impact coming soon due to such technologies.
Jak described it so well. The possibilities, and what it can do and what it can provide.
Jak is my favorite content creator when ti comes to new technology.
His videos are so well edited and just interesting to watch
He's watching two girls, one cup in vr while giving talk
fullybaked219 I have still never seen that! Lol
@@lauriemarvel please dont it will ruin your life
BrokenShadows lol, trust me, I won’t watch it. I’d have to burn my eyes out after!
"Just gotta pause Fortnite for a second"
> nobody laughs
Because its not funny and gamers are a human experiment perceiving life on lower states of awareness...aka they’re boring fucks
TITAN0402 I agree with you man, gamers are utter disgraced to humanity. 😂
TITAN0402 i admit its fun but it’s a shame it wastes our time in reality and it’s just a Empty achievement and it’s the future
@@TITAN0402 you must be great at parties😂😂 closed minded childlike insults lmao
Jesus Christ, do you three in the replies have any idea of what ‘entertainment’ is?
I hope one day I am gonna successful and be talker in Ted like him
Learn English first and foremost.
@@MrNight-dg1ug Hahhaa absolutely u are right
@mlk fan : You can do Ted talks in other languages. Although understanding that particular language to a decent level is important of course.

In 10 years from now we will be laughing at how huge were those vr glasses back in the day.
Edit: *Social Experiment*
If you like my comment, does that mean I'm content creator?
Would you support my creation?
$jacoza
And how low quality they are! And no full body haptic feedback? UNPLAYABLE!
Imagine Brain Machine Interface Full Dive. And then the BMIs the Super AI creates. We’re in the era of horse to car transition for XR.
Huawei VR Glass came out a few weeks ago. Basically sunglasses
We will be also be laughing at the idea of controllers.
@@elijahballinger Somebody's been watching SAO: Alicization.
This kind of content is great for the VR industry. You’re a very articulate speaker and that shows people who don’t understand VR that it can be for them, not just enthusiasts. It takes VR and transforms it from being a spectacle to being a part of the ordinary world. Very good talk. Thanks
I had chills.. he is amazing.
He has a huge peepee too
His youtube channel is Disrupt u should check it out
@@magicman78yearsago18 thank you SO much !
That was the corona you had, we just didnt know about it yet
So proud of you Jak! DISRUPT FAM LOVE!

Jak you’re an excellent speaker and I enjoyed your talk, thank you.
When he said I just gotta pause fortnite real quick and nobody laughed because they actually thought you could pause an online game
Amazing speech and just a great story. I use vr now to study and to game and its changed both for me forever I love it and I'm never going back.
Interested to hear about studying with it!
@@joshuaboulton36 me too!
Exactly what do you mean by using vr to study? My guess is virtual desktop?
For a TEDx talk this is remarkably well done! Very well spoken with good pacing and interesting points, with interesting takeaways and conclusions at every sentence. Great stuff
So much confidence and composure. Awesome speech!
What emotion does the face on his headset convey?
The emotion is intrigued
Drunk angry
VSauce
🤨
🤔
I just watched " ready player one” and this comes to my recommendation
What was your opinion on it?
@@Lacie9 actually it's very good
How they showed every one living a virtual life that can be possible in future and how he become the game master is really very interesting and although they showed that we shouldn't forgot the real world (which is very beautiful ) because of some high technological
advancements
Note-Sorry ,if my english got wrong some where
@@rekhaaswal2393 finally someone who actually likes that movie
@@Lacie9 yeah it's really good
My favorite ted talk I’ve ever heard!
i love, showing people on how good vr has become, it is always so amazing to see what comes out of it when they discover it. the people who look like they wouldn't bat an eye on such things get down on their knees while gamers and non self confident people walk out on the plank first try, it is so halarious and relateable (when you did it yourself bevore) and seeing those people blown away by the fact that this little thing tricked them and made them fear for their life is just priceless. i did (and doo) my part on spreading the knowledge on what vr has to offer, now it is also your turn (if you got a good headset, we aren't talking abbout smartphone "vr", we are talking abbout the real thing, big player VR ) to show people in your surroundings on what vr has to offer, vr needs a bigger playerbase so it can start through, help us out on making it a big thing and trust me, sharing it with others is funnier than playing it on your own (also fun to compete with them in games like beat saber)
He sounds like Adam Neely
He does though
*The Riff plays*
This song's fine and all, but it could really use some jazz harmony.
No he doesnt
Genius idea, you can just have the whole presentation written in the vr room
I enjoyed this, thank you for posting.
I love the expression on his headset.
Very good, just can't wait till such a new world will be possible, every day if a person wants it that way.
VR Chat has been out for a few years now
Watch Kromia VR chat Christmas
I like his T-shirt(Einstein wearing HMD)
VR IS THE FUTURE it’s literally why I started my channel so more people understand the magic of it and to combat some of the fear around it
He's right about one thing. VR cannot be explained. It has to be experienced. It's unlike anything else. Fascinating, captivating and addictive.
I got this guy to read my English essay, look how far he's come
he actually didnt really say something
pretty much any TED talk lol
@bluestar2k2 damn true staement
ArnePunk what does this even mean? He shared his experience for something that could very possibly be what life is like in the future
Wow, there are so many different things and applications in VR that I never knew of
This is amazing 🥺 vr is my life now

this guy deadset sounds like heath ledgers joker
alivescooter society
deadset more like headset
Nailed it
You can tell he took some courses on public speaking and speeches haha
How?
Finn V how
or maybe he just read it off of the headset?
I can't. This isn't like a good speech or anything, just interesting.
Caz Wydrzynski as someone who has competed in public speaking he is very well spoken.
Disrupt is such an amazing channel. Knew it couldn't be anyone else here
VR is the future. I have an oculus quest and it’s easily the best new product I’ve seen since the iPhone
This guy's channel is pretty cool
He had his speech in the vr headset lol
His voice is so calming.
Thank you for your efforts with us😍😍😍
I went outside once, the graphics were okay but the gameplay was terrible.
I know right, the developer didn't really put any attention in gameplay. The tutorial is also useless and took too long
@@efu2046 They didn't even put save & load functions.
Ehh you’re doing it wrong.
wow what a funny and original joke man. Congratulations you did it
The whole school and College levels were extremely hard and the reward wasn't even worth it
I could of just watched his vid again
SO PROUD OF SEEING HIM IN A TED TALK
Awesome can't wait to experience this in my life time
When he said “hold on, let me pause fortnite real quick” I cringed in to another dimension
The joke was amazing though

That was a good ted talk, ready for the new age and some needed educational support on the good and bad
I must say I couldn't have worded it better myself he hit every point and hit it right on the nose
11:05
He thought everyone was gonna laugh
yeah lol. must've been awkward
@Destynation Z fake?
Destynation Z you do realise people in vr are just real people that are in vr?
We can't have enough of this. VR is genuinely incredible and it feels so incredibly wasteful that we aren't investing more into it more rapidly.
He was the face of disrupt, man. I hope he is doing well these days.
I can listen to this guy talk for hours
GUYS THE THUMBNAIL HE DOES NOT HAVE HIS HANDS UP!
So?
@@hangingwithvoid360 It is a thing. Every ted talk thumbnail is the speaker standing looking like they are holding a ball in each hand.
my dream is to able to talk like him.
What'd you ask/say to him?
Fantastic talk well done thank you
I used to run a mail truck between Tuscon and Vegas. I can totally relate.
I came here knowing dam well it was going to be Disrupt
Next Ted Talk: What I've learned from spending 5 weeks buried in sand.
Summary: the suns hot, sand is sandy, then death
Absolutely brilliant! VR is undoubtedly the future of media presentation. Do you know what I think will happen when we perfect virtual worlds? Our virtual selves will want to create another world within the virtual one. This'll go to infinity.
This ted talk is deeper than the talk that airs on the radio in desert bus
