I phrased that badly, I really just mean audio as the platform, but I wanted to highlight that people have headphones and earbuds, are happy to wear them for long periods of time either at work or outside, and in a lot of cases have home devices with audio interfaces. When people try to push a vision of the metaverse as some embodied experience across multiple services and devices, with more ambient interactions with people and data, I genuinely think you'd get more mileage dreaming up new audio services to fulfil this rather than janky 3D stuff requiring a headset nobody wants to wear. I don't think it takes an audio only device such as the one linked to be able to envision audio-first interfaces that are better than the current generation of very limited and disjointed assistants.
