I have seen zero data on the presumed interest or need for #Metaverse for users! Yet, some governments (the EU) intergovernmental institutions (ITU) and companies (#telcos, #Meta) want us to believe this is the next big thing. Also, can any one of them, please define Metaverse?
@kkomaitis @mmasnick I think at some point telepresence conferencing, shopping and socialising will be useful, but we’re a long way from that now, and who knows what it’ll look like.
Keep pressing and the only definition is “Read Snowcrash.” But I think that’s likely to be like someone in 1970 saying read 2001 if you want to know what space travel will look like in 2001.
