It’s one of the most abused terms in technology and yet the time has come for it to make a serious mark. And with that, real life as we know it will be over. Virtual newscasters will take over and almost anyone with a camera can generate professional news bulletins by choosing age, gender, voice, expressions and level of authority required. Thus most TV show and news anchors will be out of their jobs. Virtual actors will be employed at multiple levels and it will be impossible to sort out the real from the virtual actors in the latest blockbusters.
Thus, a shoot in the tulip gardens in Amsterdam for Yashraj studios will cost practically nothing (bonus: no more star tantrums!). Doctors and lawyers will be available 24 hours as their virtual avatars will always be at hand to take as many calls as their HD conference call facilities can handle. Even an SMS from your phone will be delivered by a 3D holographic miniature version of you popping out of the recipient’s phone. Virtual will be virtually everywhere.
