I don’t agree. I dislike Fb to the extent that I already deleted my account quite a while ago. And I thought the Meta attempt at a meta verse with cartoon characters looked ridiculous.
But the video in the OP link, with the photo real avatars. This is a whole other level. It’s super cool.
The fact that they made a ridiculous cartoon Metaverse first does not detract from the coolness of this photorealistic thing.
Still, I’m not gonna use any Metaverse that Meta will make. Photoreal or otherwise. But that is because I dislike Meta as a company.
The point is that what they have made here is some top notch stuff.
I look forward to seeing Apple compete with this. I hope that with an iPhone and an Apple VR headset I can get to experience something similar in a few years.

I disagree that the cartoon demo does not detract. I suspect a large majority of users and advertisers assumed Zuckerberg went off-piste completely. This interview with Lex is much more aligned with what should have been their first public demo of a Metaverse 'vision'.
