Check out XReality Podcast #68. XR Training and Virtual Worlds with Laura Kusumoto
In this episode, we explored the hidden danger of "false training" in VR, where simulations feel productive but actually teach the wrong skills. We discussed how avatar embodiment changes cognitive behavior through the Proteus effect and the guardrails needed when generative AI enters fully immersive spaces. We also tackled how to design XR education that sharpens critical thinking rather than creating passive compliance.
