At some point the signals going to your brain won't be too different. VR + AI experiences have way more potential, and will greatly accelerate the trend of people mapping out their limbic systems.
How? Maybe when we plug our brains directly into the matrix through a neural interface for direct electrical simulation but that's SciFi for now. We're still at the step of VR headsets.
Of course there will be variation in what people will accept. For many, near enough is good enough (I was surprised to hear that people had AI partners.)
You sound like those people who want AI to mimic human behavior, yet there are so many more interesting applications outside of that constraint.
