Why The Next Big Thing Looks Like a Toy? Ft. Apple Vision Pro

Episode 103: I’m going to break down a seminal essay by Andreesen Horowitz General Partner Chris Dixon. In 2010, Chris wrote an essay titled “The next big thing will start out looking like a toy” which talks about why the next big technology product always starts out by being dismissed and being considered “toy-like.” And while I think understanding this essay and Chris’ words are always important, I think it’s an especially timely essay to read with the introduction of the Apple Vision Pro, which has taken the internet by storm since its release 2 days ago.
