A few 10s of billions of dollars along with a bunch of super smart people haven't made much of a dent, so I don't think vague assurances are going to cut it. Nobody can predict what technology will be like in a few decades, but I don't see any reason to be particularly bullish on VR. At this rate, even if it does happen at some point, Meta likely won't be around to see it.

- rurp 4y agoThe goal is for VR to become a dominant platform and their progress has been far from massive. Some technical advancements along the way are nice, but won't matter without large numbers of users. How many people visit the metaverse multiple times per day? What percent of the population spends hours per day in a VR headset? The answer to those questions needs to be much better than "miniscule" for this project to be any sort of success.
