They didn’t rename it because they were confident in the meta verse, they did it because they had a reputation as a toxic company that abused its use of algorithms to suppress views they didn’t like. And everyone knows Facebook is for oldies and they wanted to stay relevant.
True. That’s why I keep calling them Facebook. That and because a generic word like “meta” is confusing in conversation.

Personally I always figured the whole Metaverse/Meta rebrand shit was an attempt to divert from bad PR from the whole privacy scandal, no surprise it's being killed off.
quite a lot of cash burned to do so. I doubt it, if it was it spiralled out of control.
Maybe. It could very well have been a long time project, since they already own Oculus, but was forcibly announced earlier to cover up bad PR.
Also companies have sabotaged themselves before, specially when there's a lot of conflicting departments/teams, so that could have been a thing too.

This whole "metaverse" thing always struck me as a solution in search of a problem. Between Zoom calls, texting, emails, etcetera, how much more connected to we really need to be? Plus extra money for special hardware and so on? I don't get the point of it.
And on top of all that, the experience sucks. I’d rather have a Zoom call any day. If they can’t create realistic graphics, it’s a lost cause in today’s world.

They were convinced that investing such money into VR will turn get them a monopoly in VR industry. Which they kinda succeded, they bought a lot of startups and other stuff. But VR never launched, which burned their entire idea.

I think the problem with Metaverse was the approach they took. It was fundamentally wrong and limited. The things you could create in Meta were all very limited and pre-defined. The real MetaVerse needs to be an extension of HTML/Web technologies and use the same principles, allowing everyone to build whatever they want. In other words, Meta needs to be open, and standardized and use a shared game engine to render the VR worlds( Just as we use shared browsers/javascript engine) to render the web. Meta should run on one standard(free) game engine that renders everything. Deploying your game to Meta should require no input/discussion/permission from Meta( just like deploying a new website to the web, requires no input from Meta)
In theory, once you have downloaded all the game/app assets, you should be able to almost seamlessly walk from one game into another, in MetaVerse.
Instead we got a poopier version of vrchat and you had to pay money to clap for people making jokes on stage
I love this comment. Let's hold fingers for the future!
- Its called programming language...
- Meta failed because it was just another "ready for player one promise" including crypto. And you need an expensive mcguffin on top of your pc.
- The "metaverse" looked like trash. And its not even new. You can call most mmo's a metaverse, by metas own definition...
- 3D failed in cinemas for reasons. Than they tried to bring it into the homes, also gone. VR is nothing else...its a niche-market. Maybe one day its the new standard, like mouse and keyboard. Maybe it will thrown over board like a lot of "new innovations"...just have a look how many consoles flopped since people could afford to buy them.
- Hardware is expensive, also the cost to keep them running. My guess is, that other metaverses will be at least partly cloud-based. Also i see more a future in stuff like shadow.
- Rendering has nothing to do with this. There is a difference between client and server authorized (games) and how both communicating with each other. How information is stored / shared and how something is declared as "valid" if you will so. Networking issues based on such things including tons of exploits. To design a world where everybody shares the same information and can do what ever they like to do is an absolute insane task...there is a reason why no such game exists and everybody who tried, failed. Kickstarter is full of such "promises".
Don't get me wrong, i don't want to offend you, but in my eyes, we are far away from "the" metaverse...like, rlly far away...
@@marasmorgean5813 I don’t think anyone has ever tried to do what I was suggesting. It wouldn’t be easy…but in the end it will be inevitable. It will just take decades to get there. Shared environment is a mater of abstraction and standardisation. Just like html and JavaScript. VR meta world would have a markup language built on top of html. You would register your 3D domain and design it however you like. Your domain could have subdomains etc. within the domain , you would use a markup language to divide the 3D space allocated to you into sub- spaces and fill it with models. You would add meta info that would describe which rules of physics apply in your domain…materials …etc.
But then you couldn't control what people think which was always the point.
That's a real shame, I was really hoping at this point that Facebook would waste more money on actually developing it, that it would be released to the public and be criticized relentlessly, that there would be fun videos of trolling and harassment and that when the thing would actually be discontinued that it would be grand and dramatic. Sad to see that Facebook came back to their senses so soon!
I think it was released to the public like half a year ago or something. Not to make fun of you, just to point out how little attention it got when it was released. At least I think it was. When I look it up it's marketing baloney

Having worked on a crew that helped build some of the Facebook datacenters around the South-east US, I can say that they definitely have enough servers to pull off pretty much any size AI model that you could imagine, some places have miles of high performance servers that aren't even being used yet for anything yet.
miles of servers? I can't even imagine.

As someone who was and still is interested in VR, I celebrate this turn of events as I dance in the ashes of Meta! Any metaverse needs to be built and controlled by the people, ideally all open-source and decentralized. We want none of the censorship and "safe spaces" corporate social media and governments want to shove down our throats: This does NOT belong in the hands of people who still think pixels on a screen can harm children or words turn people into criminals... they should only ever touch a computer to read the news and check the weather.

Facebook (Meta) are no longer the trend setters they thought they were, and lately it seems all they're doing is chasing trends but just a little too late than everyone else. If I were an investor, I'd be reconsidering how viable Facebook is as a company.
And they aren't even getting good "value" out of their money. Even the Star Citizen devs don't waste this much.
chasing trends yep. google are doing that too, esp youtube. facebook is a zombie company in the long term.

What Mark needs to do quickly is to sink everything he has into generative Ai for Ig before TikTok establishes a beachhead in that space. TikTok is currently experimenting with it and that space is the future 🌺🦢🇬🇭
Facebook's "inovation" came from buying other companies in the 2010's. That is what landed them in hot water with the EU. It was a monopoly building.
Who could have thought that people don't want Zuck's nightmarish vision of his personal dystopia?
Let's be fair - part of the reason they renamed themselves to Meta was that a number of unpleasant truths had come out concerning facebook, and the corporate mentality led them to believe that rebranding was the logical thing to do to distance themselves from... uh... themselves.
And it kinda worked - everyone stopped talking about the various controversies and leaked information, and instead only talked about how crappy the metaverse was.
Some things about the LLaMA model 1. They claim their 13B model outperforms GPT3 (175B) in most benchmarks 2. No RLHF was done(aka human feedback on the outputs, the stuff that makes chatGPT work) so more work will be needed for that. 3. The models are open source under a *non-commercial* license and you needed to fill a form for access, although it seems that even before the leak they where giving access to anyone with a .edu email.
I was interested in using it for my capstone project at university but ultimately my client will be using it for commercial/military use so gpt2 or t5 are what we're using

I don't know what you mean by too restrictive.

So, they might be the Evil company, but they did a lot for open source machine learning

For those wondering:
The whole point of Metaverse was to be the next iPhone.
The whole point of this exercise was to try to usurp Apple's dominance of the mobile app store.
You see, ever since Apple changed their privacy settings to block the Facebook app's invasive data collection, Mark has been trying to build his own platform.
But instead of a phone or OS or app store, he wanted to build his own technology platform from the ground up.
He wanted to be the next Steve Jobs.
That's why they invested billions. Because this was a power struggle for market dominance.
I agree, and it has completely blown up in their face. The iPhone actually solved real problems. The metaverse does not. Meta is inventing expensive solutions to problems that people don’t have.
they or him, why would the board allow him to make this obvious mistake
What Facebook should have done is a feasibility study to determine if there is a market for this technology.
My guess is that they did, but it did not give them the results they liked. I.e. there was no market.
And from that point, they probably convinced themselves they could create demand out of thin air.
@@TheItchyDani3l they probably faked the results of such a study (money can buy you any industry study result you want - just ask consultants) to please the Zuck, or just disregarded it completely as you said. Now we have this circus act.

700GB of VRAM is more than you can realistically achieve in a consumer motherboard, and it's more expensive than anyone can really justify for personal use... but a 10GPU server with 10 Nvidia A100 GPUs yields 800GB of VRAM in a single ~5,000W server. And it'll cost you like $100,000 to buy. But these aren't earth shattering numbers. It's a single server, you don't need to build a new datacenter for one.
Worth mentioning that there actually is a computer that can train large AI models and can do so quickly with ZERO VRAM or DRAM. The system, made by Cerebras, has over a terabyte of freaking cache. The chip is an entire wafer and consumes tens of kilowatts. No joke.

Wow, that took longer than I though it would. FB has been bleeding money for years now, and it's accelerating. Even if this had been a good idea, they no longer have the resources to fund proper development. AI isn't going to save them, it will require an even higher investment, and they have missed the window already.
Remember the Veritas leaks on Facebooks moderation team during the election cycle? Those are the same people who are going to decide how Meta AI can be used.
The majority of computer scientists are redistributionist transnational types, so all closed-source software should be assumed to be part of the woke borg.
I think Facebook is just latching onto whatever the new trend is to try and appease investors at this point. I don't expect anything further revolutionary from them, maybe ever. Google throws new things at the wall so often that sometimes they change things, but Facebook seems to just try and copy trends and improve on then, and fails to do so outside of their main product being an improvement over Myspace. If they start open sourcing things and being a bit less creepy about the data they collect I'd bet they could become something amazing, but investors don't see any benefits to that so I doubt it will happen.

He's going to do this "investing" thing, because he doesn't care about what the world is like, he cares about what his bank balance is like.
metaverse was getting built before zuck even heard the name ... him stopping his projects doesnt end the metaverse ... it just makes it better
The metaverse doesn't exist, take meds. Are these metaversers in the room with us right now?
it puts it back in the hand s of the people
@@coldestbeer Technically speaking, VR chatrooms are part of the "metaverse". And people with head sets and anime cat girl avatars were here before Zuck arrived.
And the anime cat girl VR avatars shall be here long after Zuck hath returned to the dust from whence he came.
@@badaoe3stratsonly130 Vr chat & 2nd life is a videogame with proximity chat.
@@coldestbeer VR chat does not qualify as a videogame.
These days people call anything you can interact through video as "videogames" which is a growing misconception.
A videogame, not only requires a video interacting media, but also requires a goal, a challange and obstacles. These are the basic elements for something to be a game.
VR Chat is more of a simulation.
The metaverse was always a very confusing concept without any demand
Where is the proof that Zuck is killing its metaverse project? I really don’t understand where you’re getting your facts. Theres only one article that mentions this (which reads very oddly similar to your video script…) from The Street. Zuck might’ve mentioned that they’re starting an initiative on generative AI, but that by no means is proof that they’re killing the metaverse.
And the article from TheStreet reads oddly similar to how a large language model might write an article.
what shocked me with meta is the scale of the waste of money... you can make an MMO for $100M, you can make GTA online for $200M, wtf can't you do something semi decent with $10B ???
Lol you lost me at AI😅😢...Great content. You have definitely outsmarted the audience (me) here. Thank you.
RIP people that spend money in this digital landfill
honestly this is the best it could pan out. these guys were gonna gentrify the hell out of the metaverse and raise the rent and regulations skyhigh
They'll also outsource your Metaverse jobs to developing countries 😅
Bro, that is one hell of a comment that I thought I would never read.
Talking about FOSS self hosted chat AI, surprised you didn't mention Open Assistant, still very much in the works but I log in to their dashboard every now and then to produce and curate data (everyone can do so). Their aiming for around 50k conversation trees and have around 7.3k right now according to the stats page, with around 44k initial prompts waiting to be expanded into conversations (and of course you can always add more).
Meta doesn’t mean metaverse or correlate.
Its more like saying they’re meta, they’re the trendsetter, they’re the top G right now, or the big homie in big tech, etc.
They could've picked up a fraction of the money to buy vrchat instead and still stay strong on the VR front, and then monetize an already working product. But nobody hired me for consulting sooo.
This is actually quite sad, I don't know where their money went but they could build a really good metaverse with a lot less money.
Last year I did a project for Autodesk's Executive Vice President... the "metaverse" was quite popular at the time (around January-February) and she wanted to do a full presentation inside the metaverse. Basically, I was tasked to build her a metaverse world in 3D (fully in 3D, all by myself) in 2 weeks. Then she'd be filmed using my camera specs (focal length, distance from object, height, lens specs, etc) and then they'd composite her in my world.
It was an amazing project and I had the most fun doing it, and the result looked amazing!
Sadly I didn't receive permission to display it publicly, but I'm in the process of recording a massive series of tutorials, not only explaining how I got the job, but how it was working with them, what I think of the "metaverse", why I started building her world in Maya but then switched to Blender (a FOSS 3D program), etc.
Let's see the videos
Has a ton of potential but they were terrible at implementation. Nearly $14B could build some serious game studios and bring real titles to VR, which would've built a following for people to develop with the Oculus SDK, etc. Get users on the platform, no matter what it takes to do so. But a nerfed VR chat app was not the way to go.
@@NeptuneSega They're in production. It's a *massive* task to recreate a virtual world full of plants and special effects, plus in a tutorial format, plus a lot of back story.
@@krozareq Exactly. They could've hired some serious talent for this and sprung up a gaming company focused on the metaverse.
I think Meta's worst enemy was their own management.
Sounds like a huge waste of money. That executive just wanted to see her face inside a VR headset.
I don't think facebook can make anything interesting. They won't take any chances and can only generate things with rounded edges that look like they were designed for toddlers. Instead of the metaverse they could have called it 'Toxic Positivity Labs'.
Zuckerberg discovered Second Life way too late lmao
Just like you made this comment too late.
@@kaydog890 asshurt Metaverse coper spotted
Facebook have actually been releasing open source large language models for quite a while. Their project is called OPT, and they have released models of various parameter sizes, some of which can already be run locally by projects such as KoboldAI
How sad, just when the legs update was becoming popular among the 12 meta users 😢
Before you start roasting me, I myself was passionate about the metaverse and saw future for it as well but as of now it's a thing of the past, I loved it so much my videos on my channel were based around it. But as the years go by even VR itself is pretty dead. Now looking back on it the Metaverse was really just a hyped-up concept with promises that companies couldn't and wouldn't meet.
They were the only company making significant advancements in research in optics and headsets. Without them, VR is probably set back another decade.
Sony - Hold my coat!
Well, that's what happens when you allow a company to form a monopoly. They never should have been allowed to buy up all the VR startups the way they did.
@@tissuepaper9962 This, I still mourn Oculus being a Facebook property now, the Rift was and is still a magical device
A bad as Facebook is generally, the have released or contributed to open source that’s used everywhere these days:
- PyTorch ML framework
- React JS framework
- Jest JS testing framework
That said, I doubt they’ll release any pretrained models, but might release some of the tools they develop to make those models, or perhaps the base code to train your own.
One can respect Facebook engineers on a professional level while also judging them *relentlessly* for selling their souls to the Zucc. I've contributed to PyTorch; it's mostly Facebook guys as you say, and they're doing some really great work that helps everybody, but I still judge them for taking a job from that lizard alien. Ethics are much more valuable to an engineer than technical knowledge. When consumers won't say "No" to protect themselves, it's up to the engineers to put a stop to the abuse of the consumer by refusing to design a harmful product. That means not taking a job from a company that can literally only survive by spying on their customers. You know where your paycheck is coming from when you work at Facebook, and it isn't honest work.
@@tissuepaper9962 yeah, it’s a shame how much talent they’ve hovered up through recruitment & acquisitions & I don’t absolve the devs from being complicit in the unethical practices headed by bergs Zucker & Sand.
Having those types of devs remunerated properly on opensource foundations would be awesome, but it’s usually only big tech & VC funded startups that pay.
5:36 For the ChatGPT RAM Requirements. Its larger that 700GB of VRAM. These model expand and shrink during training, and during inferencing they usually use a compressed variant of the model. So in rough estimates its probably around Terabytes of VRAM. But for the computers designated to OpenAI from Microsoft for GPT-4 its stated to be in the top 5 most powerful supercomputers on the planet, in the category of AI and Machine Learning.
Chat bots are important but still very much a gimmick. I'm waiting to see a CLEAR way these companies are going to make money from these AI models.
I knew metaverse would flop. Wearing the gear is not practical. Only a few people would use it for a long period of time. VR is actually a small niche.
Sadly I think it is pretty utopian to expect these models to be run locally. With Microsoft buying OpenAI and all of the other tech companies jumping on that pie, I expect that all of them will keep that stuff gated behind a paywall, and only let you interact with it through their own API. This way they keep a monopoly on that tech and can sell it to you for whatever price they want.
God has blessed us
Oh gods, they are putting people too incompetent to make a good VR chatroom in charge of literally the most complicated thing in computing (outside of quantum computing)
Maybe they can ask ChatGPT how to do it?
Pretty sure compiler and language runtime development are more complicated in technical aspects
Stay away from anything Meta.
Spiritual Court is in session. Sentences being handed down vis Karma. 👁👁💯💯
Imagine Facebook becomes 50 people talking to billions of AI chatbots
And that would be different than present in what way?
Billions wasted. Hope it was worth it, Zuckerberger
If you can't build a world, build a waifu to cope with.
--Zuck, probably
So what happens to all those who purchased “virtual real-estate”? Hmmm
It’s not failed. My meta pro headset is mindblowing good. And it takes a platform at least 7-10 years to attract the big AAA+ game developers. The sideloader community is thriving already.
Facts, in a decade or 2 I’m confident meta/VR will be almost as big as they envisioned or bigger
Greatest news I’ve ever gotten
wake up, new mentaloutlaw video dropped
Yes dear…
The way I see it Meta is not only killing their Meta product line, they just killed their AI division. Out-of-touch and very bad management was what got them to create Meta in the first place and bet the house on it. Now they're consolidating they're admittedly successful AI teams into one? I'm betting that the bad management will consolidate too. Thus I'd expect to hear that they will begin to blow unfathomable amounts of money on their AI division, only to see weak results. With the AI market as hot as it is, it won't be enough to compete. That will kill them.
One can only hope!
Self-hosting is not the only way to train models on your data. OpenAI actually allows fine-tuning of the models. Tho not all of the models. They also claimed recently that they are not reading your training data. Quote from an news article:
> OpenAI is changing the terms of its API developer policy, aiming to address developer - and user - criticism.
> Starting today, OpenAI says that it won’t use any data submitted through its API for “service improvements,” including AI model training, unless a customer or organization opts in. In addition, the company is implementing a 30-day data retention policy for API users with options for stricter retention “depending on user needs,” and simplifying its terms and data ownership to make it clear that users own the input and output of the models.
> Greg Brockman, the president and chairman of OpenAI, asserts that some of these changes aren’t changes necessarily - it’s always been the case that OpenAI API users own input and output data, whether text, images or otherwise. But the emerging legal challenges around generative AI and customer feedback prompted a rewriting of the terms of service, he says.
I had blast riding puts on Meta most of 22! Hopefully they keep doing this so I can transfer some more of that sweet meta money into my bank in 23 🥳
