The year is 2035, All major tech companies have finally completed their Augmented Reality compact headsets. Bought Hololens gen 4 mostly for productivity. I scroll through the filter overlays in the appstore, find a 4.5 star of 5 anime reality overlay. I download it, and instantly my view of the world looks like something out of my imagination, damn even that subpar girl on the train is even waifu material. AI came a long way since I was a kid. Shit, I wonder what my hamwife looks like, this could save my marriage! I am not attracted to her as she is, but this could at least make it so I can look at her. I head to my front door, open it, and my smile immediately fades. Pic related.

What future do you see for consumers in 15 years /lit/?

What books create a similar vibe? I want to dive into this thought.

Unironically Nick Land or Mark Fisher
Baudrillard would be pretty good to.

If you're looking for KINO fiction, Neuromancer, dreams of amputation, and altered carbon all have some neat stuff.
