The company formally know as Facebook had a presentation Thursday leaping head first into virtual reality space , trying to leave behind a ill fated past promoting qanon, not doing anything about the in genocide in Myanmar and helped organizing the Jan 6 riots. It seem like meta pitch you can do all of this in VR.
First they seem like they were pitching themselves as a alternative to Microsoft teams. Instead of zoom you see your co workers as some weird avatar. They are very behind as a office products company.
Second there trying to be some video game company in the metaverse. There trying to put GTA San Andres a game that came out in 2004 on the PlayStation 2 with 240p graphics, then they put out a battle royale that I cant remember the name of. There are companies like Sony that are way head of the curve with PlayStation VR platform with console or pc quality games like blood and truth. They have a long way to go as a video game developer.
Third Mike Isaac tweeted out for the metaverse to be real ie there needs to breakthrough in physics which elicit the perfect from former vice journalist “its a simple matter of folding space in the fourth dimension and going faster then the speed of light, mark. The hardware to keep cheap had to lose a lot of processing power and thus lower quality graphics.
Fourth and finial this whole presentation which seemed hastily put together all seemed like a last min marketing ploy that Mr. Zuckerberg leaving social media behind and building a new world from the ground up leaving behind the old world he helped ruin by promoting teen body image issues , promoting disinformation and replacing human moderators with AI because its cheaper. The problem is Mark Zuckerberg is someone who might not have a moral compass, he was spineless to fix the problems in the real world he will be spineless to fix them in a virtual one.
