Capitalism. Facebook is the factory farm shoveling that meaty sata to the actual marketing firms. They're Facebook's _customers_ who know how to use the data.
The worst part about Metaverse isn't that it's a lifeless cash-grab, it's the fact that Mark assumed everyone can afford a VR headset and the systems needed to run a VR game smoothly. Like, imagine your boss sets up a mandatory meeting and its only accessible with something that is financially out of your reach by _miles._

Except in this version no one is ever even aware the contest exists and there is a lot less emphasize on the 80’s and ancient arcade games.

My other major problem with the metaverse is how much it feels so "unprofessional" and yet Mark is pushing it to be a work environment. It has the same feeling of adding emojis to confidential documents. Just the whole idea of being cartoons as avatars screams unprofessionalism. And in this day and age, where higher management are forcing subordinates to act more serious and professional while on the job, having avatars has the same feeling as using a cat filter while working. I thought Mark Zuckerberg was a genius since he was a young man able to become a billionnare. But now I don't know how a dumb guy like him was ever to pull that off. He's certainly not as smart as I thought he was.

We're in a weird age where it feels like all major organizations, in private and public sectors, are laughably out of touch with their target audiences and consumers.
There are a couple of videos of some Meta research about scanning faces with a phone, that look much, much better. With the Quest Pro they could get much better expression too, but that is a very expensive headset. ChatVR full body tracking needs some pretty expensive hardware too. Keeping it to the Quest 2 limitations and supporting a decent number of users in a space is a pretty big constraint. It would be nice if they released some much nicer rendering - even if you can only have 2-3 users. Of course it still has the problem of not having a good use case - cyberspace sounds cool in books and movies, but the reality is definitely lacking.
"That's not even as many students in a full classroom." This is sad for many reasons - not the least off which being that 30 students is waaaaaaaaay too many for a single teacher to work with.
The entire Meta cast of characters are like politicians who have no clue how the internet works and try to appear tech savvy by being obvious poseurs on social media
I think it would work well for telesales & customer service training and coaching. Like they could sell this product widescale to companies like Concentrix and Sitel or even Salesforce
I remember Netflix on the 360 used to allow you to invite your friends and all your avatars would sit in a little theater and watch Netflix with one person controlling the pause button. That was in 2009.
I have never done that personally, so I don't know if that was a feature at the very first launch or not, but if it is, it dates even further back to 2005. Insane to think about, how old that console is already.

Jesus Christ is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. They that believeth and are baptized (with the Holy Spirit) shall be saved; but they that believeth not shall be damned. Those led by the Holy Spirit do not abide in wickedness. *God is ONE manifesting himself as THREE;* the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit! Bless him! *For these three are one.* As I am led by the Holy Spirit, nothing I state is a lie, but the truth of God. Anyone who tells you differently is misinformed or a liar. They do not know God, nor led by him. Anyone who *claims* to be a Christian and is against what I am doing, and where I am doing it; the Holy Spirit does not dwell within them, they lack understanding. They know not God, read his word, and their religion is in vain. Do not hear them, they will mislead you, the lost cannot guide the lost.
The fact that they have spent millions of not billions on this project, but have a worse product than what any indie studio makes is baffling. It’s like people all over this project are just pocketing all the money and screwing over meta. It’s amazing
The reality of it is likely people pointed out it was stupid, were either ignored or silenced while the managers and suits spin wheels to make the higher ups look like they're producing something of value and when it comes out that it's garbage they take it out on the workers. Ideas rarely come from the people working on it because if you have an idea you're expected to just kind of spin it from the air and demo it on top of keeping with all the regular stuff management wants you to do. And you're usually not rewarded for it. If your idea is good they just steal it and it's not like you'll get rewarded for coming up with something good. So a lot of people will just go with whatever stupid stuff management wants and when they realize it's 100% going to be a garbage fire they are already applying for transfer or new job. A lot of that money was also probably not even spent on development, but instead on marketing the idea to investors.
when I first heard of this, my understanding is that it requires an expensive VR headset. I was thinking, why don't they have a version where you can just log on with a computer like Second Life, RDR2 online, which are both virtual environments that folks have used for virtual meetings? Not to mention both those things have better graphics and avatars. Also, "the only thing sadder was the end of Marley and Me" lol
Avatars actually brings a lot for zoom use. Used face rig to comunicate with teachers who was forcing to use webcam. Really helpfull when you feel anxious you know about what
On 360 the original Netflix used to let you host lil lobbies with other people that had it and you could watch shows together in a personal movie theatre and you could emote and other dumb shit and that's light years ahead of metaverse. I still don't know why they removed that feature cause it was underrated

Rec-Room is another metaverse, and it has literally millions of users. VR Chat is another, and it's also fairly popular. Only reason there's anyone in Meta's Horizon is that it comes with the device (although only in NA), and because old people are there to talk about sirius stuff.

This reminds me of when i was working for a dying company and couldnt believe in it but had to go thru the motions. I wonder how many meta employees are just hoping to god their 1m comp packages dont disappear
"the only thing sadder than the meta verse is the ending to marley and me" 😭😭😭
The sad thing is Mark is far more promising as an animated character, then he ever could be in real life.
this is the plan
Just barely IMO. That silent throwing confetti animation says it all. Empty soul-less celebrations of nothing in particular for the sake of justification.
IRL didn't pan out, so now we're all cartoon characters
damn. but tru
Of course because the metaverse is his true form
The greatest irony of Facebook is that it was hailed as a way to bring humans together but has totally denigrated human connection since it’s inception
the internet and social media as a whole degenerated society.
I quit using Facebook too- whenever I do glance over at it, I think it’s me but it doesn’t happen anywhere else. I feel huge amounts of disdain for anyone I see posting on there.
@@alwaysyouramanda I only use facebook for marketplace to check out cheap sports cars or maybe some game. I honestly don't recall the last time I posted anything on there and I don't plan on doing so
Tbh I've mostly treated Facebook as a virtual contacts backup, and so it's really had no more effect on me than my phone's default messenger app. Social media only has the power we choose to give it
@I don't fist bump people like you. anyone young enough to care about moving somewhere else already moved off facebook years ago, a lot of the current users are just old and starting to die off
I like how animating facial expressions onto a digital avatar provided a more expressive mark zuckerberg than reality ever did
No doubt Hollywood is even now working on an animated horror movie. A bunch of teenagers are trapped forever in the Metaverse. The movie's byline: "If you don't have legs, guess what else you don't have?"
A dick?
It's odd seeing Charlie being reclined, facing his entire body to the camera.

Is it just me, or do I find Mark more human in the metaverse than his real life self.
His avatar face is actually animated
So true. But, his real self isn't human. He invented the meta verse so he could finaly be surrounded by familiar robot/lizard/human hybrid entities.
Zuc will never be able to go home, not since his ufo crash. But it melts my heart to see him beginning to be comfortable and socializing with the Earths native inteligent life forms🥺🥺🥺
@@HanziePandsy and metaverse allows those of his brethern who don't pass as well as he does (which is really a low bar) to interact with humans and socialise.
It might be because he have legs

As a leg enthusiast, Mark really knows what the people want. Legs.
passed leg day
yeah, he knows humans like legs. and air.
Who knew legs were a privilege in the Metaverse. Mark might as well be flexing to the audience in the background
as an android, Mark went trough a really hard process, having legs is now a fulfilled dream for him.
legs legs, what's on the menu? legs
VR mark has more emotion than irl mark 💀💀💀
Funniest part is that the entire presentation with the legs is entirely fake, it's all motion capture recorded inside a studio.

I'm very proud of Meta finally catching up to the Xbox 360, they might even make a Kinect rip off before they file for bankruptcy!
🤣
Except that the Xbox 360 would explode if it had to run something like Virtual Reality, so I'd say they're pretty caught up with modern day consoles.
@@wrongteous Well they've finally transitioned from the Wii, so you're sort of correct
@@wrongteous specify modern console
@@wrongteous Yeah right lol Eyetoy probably still more immersive than this crap
There are a couple of videos of some Meta research about scanning faces with a phone, that look much, much better. With the Quest Pro they could get much better expression too, but that is a very expensive headset. ChatVR full body tracking needs some pretty expensive hardware too. Keeping it to the Quest 2 limitations and supporting a decent number of users in a space is a pretty big constraint. It would be nice if they released some much nicer rendering - even if you can only have 2-3 users. Of course it still has the problem of not having a good use case - cyberspace sounds cool in books and movies, but the reality is definitely lacking.
"That's not even as many students in a full classroom."
This is sad for many reasons - not the least off which being that 30 students is waaaaaaaaay too many for a single teacher to work with.

"Yeah, but why?" is the overarching theme of this video.
The audience silently clipping through each other feels like some kind of skit about Metaverse
I remember Netflix on the 360 used to allow you to invite your friends and all your avatars would sit in a little theater and watch Netflix with one person controlling the pause button. That was in 2009.
I have never done that personally, so I don't know if that was a feature at the very first launch or not, but if it is, it dates even further back to 2005.
Insane to think about, how old that console is already.
Wait thats cute asf tho
Bro Netflix was a banger back in the day I stg
Yeah it was called Netflix Party mode or something. Only lasted 2 years even though it was super popular. I miss it
Man I remember those. It was so adorable but all good things come to an end I suppose-
This feels like a Facebook group of old people conference
On the Quest 2 my home avatar still doesn't have legs lmao

Jesus Christ is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. They that believeth and are baptized (with the Holy Spirit) shall be saved; but they that believeth not shall be damned. Those led by the Holy Spirit do not abide in wickedness.
*God is ONE manifesting himself as THREE;* the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit! Bless him! *For these three are one.*
As I am led by the Holy Spirit, nothing I state is a lie, but the truth of God. Anyone who tells you differently is misinformed or a liar. They do not know God, nor led by him.
Anyone who *claims* to be a Christian and is against what I am doing, and where I am doing it; the Holy Spirit does not dwell within them, they lack understanding. They know not God, read his word, and their religion is in vain. Do not hear them, they will mislead you, the lost cannot guide the lost.

The fact that they have spent millions of not billions on this project, but have a worse product than what any indie studio makes is baffling. It’s like people all over this project are just pocketing all the money and screwing over meta. It’s amazing
$10 billion to be exact
@@jwall0 hell nah that can't be real
I refuse to believe they actually spent over $10 on the shit they took
They’ve spent more than $15 billion dollars, according to Business Insider.
@@princessariayou mean they washed $15 million, has to be a laundering front. It doesn't make sense.
The reality of it is likely people pointed out it was stupid, were either ignored or silenced while the managers and suits spin wheels to make the higher ups look like they're producing something of value and when it comes out that it's garbage they take it out on the workers.
Ideas rarely come from the people working on it because if you have an idea you're expected to just kind of spin it from the air and demo it on top of keeping with all the regular stuff management wants you to do. And you're usually not rewarded for it. If your idea is good they just steal it and it's not like you'll get rewarded for coming up with something good.
So a lot of people will just go with whatever stupid stuff management wants and when they realize it's 100% going to be a garbage fire they are already applying for transfer or new job.
A lot of that money was also probably not even spent on development, but instead on marketing the idea to investors.
when I first heard of this, my understanding is that it requires an expensive VR headset. I was thinking, why don't they have a version where you can just log on with a computer like Second Life, RDR2 online, which are both virtual environments that folks have used for virtual meetings? Not to mention both those things have better graphics and avatars. Also, "the only thing sadder was the end of Marley and Me" lol
Getting fired in the meta verse is the equivalent of being fired over the retail headsets
Mark: Talks about the avatars being expressive. His avatar: Completely out of sync with his words.
Lol right? Plus it was pre-rendered. And the legs and arms were motion captured.
Avatars in the background: *lagging all over the place with half life 2 death noises*
Like his face then ...and his personality just totally out of sync with reality.... His avatar looks less like a alien 👽than he does
but it definitely going somewhere in the future, they showed the prototype of codec avatar in the end, which was quite impressive
It is expressive when you are a cold blooded reptilian or a robot like him
When Mark was demonstrating how expressive the models are, he looked like a Foodfight character
Yet, he still looks more human than in real life, lol.

The metaverse continues to feel like what a tone deaf and outdated AI would think humans would like in a virtual world.
More like a bunch of tone deaf corporate executives and HR types. Even outdated AIs have more charm and imagination than this.
It’s so comforting to see so few people get excited about this absolute dogshit and not support a company as toxic as Facebook.
i'm honestly not surprised about the fact that mark's avatar in the metaverse looks and acts more human than mark himself
Mark Zuckerburg low-key sees himself as a king in the metaverse expecting his meta subjects to be impressed with this virtual land he's created.
The meta-king in his meta-land with his meta-subjects giving Metaverse all the secrets of their meta-minds while the meta-subjects hold meta-festivals and sing meta-songs on the greatness that is Meta while dissidents are severed from their meta-feed
Awesome!
I wonder how he’ll react when it fucking fails.
He's the youngest person to ever become a billionaire and was known to be a self conscious and socially awkward guy back in college.
He's probably been totally consumed by all the yes-men and fake simps in his inner circle who secretly want his money
@@DanielArgh Horizon has already failed. Zuck (and the rest of the world it seems) believes that Meta's metaverse is "the metaverse" which it obviously is not. It's _one of the metaverses_ and it's easily the worst one. It's also the one that develops the slowest because Mark doesn't want muggles to sully his pristine virtual realm...
Rec-Room is another metaverse, and it has literally millions of users. VR Chat is another, and it's also fairly popular.
Only reason there's anyone in Meta's Horizon is that it comes with the device (although only in NA), and because old people are there to talk about sirius stuff. There aren't any kids in there because the kids know better, so the adults get to be alone... In the shittiest metaverse around.
