I think anyone could figure it out. I'm just the only one dorky enough to try. Basically it's just three layers. The Apple PR photo of Vision Pro at the bottom. An iPhone selfie in the middle (with an oval crop and 50 pixels of feathering). I fiddled with the transparency and fill to knock it back and make it look like it was behind the mask. A further refinement was a top layer to add some depth and masking to the face.)
Thanks for this, Michael. Not surprising that you of all people could distill this thing and make it grokkable from afar.
Don't know if you saw it, but in my prelaunch Take, I quoted Alan.
"Alan Kay famously said of the original Mac, that it was 'the first personal computer worth criticizing.'
Apple's headset will be the first mixed reality device worth criticizing. Bring it on.

You are amazing! And by the way, Peter Kafka and I said the same thing!
Only Michael J. Markman figures a way to get himself inside the goggles so perfectly! Tell all. What was your Photoshop process?
