This is a very bad sign for facebook. They are betting on everyone walking around with 3D goggles talking in Zoom like meetings.
I personally would rather go outside and see reality than virtually doing it.
Only time will tell, but I'm betting on reality.
- tinyhouse 5y agoI think it's a bit naive to think it's either that or nothing. As long as they can develop new high quality VR experiences with high adoption, they would succeed. I don't think they even know what they will end up with in 5-10 years. It's a big and expensive experiment with non insignificant chance of success in my opinion.
- hsnewman 5y agoThey have changed their company name and the focus. It's a very big gamble. I for one won't be investing in vaporware.
- mhink 5y agoI'm not a fan of Facebook/Meta, but I'm also not sure about this take. Rewind the clock 30-40 years, and I feel like it'd be easy to say something like "This is a bad sign for IBM. They are betting on everyone sitting around staring at a monitor sending electronic messages instead of talking." That's not to say that they'll actually deliver on this idea, but we've definitely seen the transformative power of tech on society. Whether that's a good thing or not is left as an exercise to the reader.
