I agree. The tech to create life like VR or AV renders of a random person for anything close to a reasonable amount of money is way off. This below is 2 seconds of video that took 53 gopros to make and is about 15% of a person who isn't moving through an environment or interacting with anything.

While eventually this will happen, Moore's law I would imagine will put the above worst case scenario 10+ years off at least. That is a lot of tech that right now chips in R&D would only be able to handle in large groups. Add that to editing tech, capture tech, getting the cost down to mainstream and of course what do you build the 4D image from? A few FB pics of your ex aren't going to cut rendering a porn from scratch.
