Interesting take, I thought he would be pretty excited a major player is entering the space he's been working on since they acquired Oculus. Apple would have done research to validate this product and market before entering it.
Edit: he did acknowledge this a bit on Lex Fridman podcast https://youtu.be/C_fpCVtGR6I https://youtu.be/C_fpCVtGR6I
- gnicholas 3y agoA friend of mine works at Meta and was telling me about how much of the AVP's functionality exists on the recent Meta devices, for a fraction of the cost. My reply: great! If that's true, that'll be a boon for Meta (as customers learn this) and for customers (who will save tons of money by getting Meta devices).
- hyuuu 3y agothis is true
- hedora 3y agoI think there is a large market of people that will never trust meta, but ignoring that, they have AR goggles now? If not, their comments about overlapping features sound like the “but nokia candy bar phones already have a WEP browser!” objections from back in the iPhone 1 days. (I’m personally not all that impressed by the apple vision announcement, but I also wasn’t impressed by the iPhone announcement, and for similar reasons. Hopefully someone will do significantly better than Apple this time.)
