Yes, and it is helping PTSD sufferers heal by using virtual reality in conjunction with cognitive behavioral therapy, but in a controlled environment.
I am afraid of the long term psychological effects; not only from brain confusion (and whatever long term changes that will make- only time will tell) in safe games, but children playing disturbingly violent and bloody games- that has a whole other element. They are not being monitored. Their brain is still developing... There is absolutely nothing to stop some serious consequences... It is frightening...
Good point...only time will tell...
It can improve its safety and reliability from controlling time and developing virtual world system.
Step by step to improve it, do you think?
I agree with that part, it will improve and evolve, but the brain is a complicated, organic thing, and if someone has the tiniest mental flaw or illness, and you introduce this mind complication that produces physical symptoms, how will the brain cope?
Do more creative thinking, positive games, and perhaps better for human development.
