He believes that the metaverse technology will eventually make physical distance irrelevant for work and presence.

“I think once you have that all dialed in then we may you know one day reach a point where it really just doesn't matter as much where you are physically”

The concept of a digital universe accessed through AR or VR is potentially beneficial for connecting people, despite the current technological limitations.

“if you can build these experiences that are much more realistic feeling and much more connective in their engagement than like a flat face on a screen or a bunch of squares in a zoom call then it's theoretically better”

The current version of the metaverse is not good.

“I think right now the metaverse sucks”

He believes the metaverse will eventually have a negative impact on the world and mental health.

“I think this whole vr thing is is insane purely because i think i just think it's going to have such a negative impact on people's mental health oh yeah like i it's as cool as it sorry to interrupt now it's minor bro as cool as it sounds don't get me wrong i'm not gasped by it because i literally th”

He thinks the metaverse is the next logical step in social evolution because it provides anonymity that bypasses current societal conflicts.

“you throw yourself in the metaverse you could be whoever you want to be and there's no point in people asking questions there's no point people saying yeah but you're a guy and you're a [ __ ] avatar girl then no one knows who you are yeah just [ __ ] go out and have fun that's that's what scares me”

She expresses concern that people will prefer virtual worlds over reality and ultimately abandon the real world.

“I feel like they'll just abandon their regularly right that's that's the worry is like if you give people unlimited access to this type of world will they choose it over the real thing I think a lot of people would”

The metaverse will not become a reality where people live their daily lives due to hardware limitations and lack of interoperability between platforms.

“I don't think a metaverse style place is something we're all going to live in or like spend an exceedingly long amount of time in every single day.”

Reality Labs is unlikely to become a meaningful contributor to shareholder value as the required investment and long-term uncertainty do not justify the potential returns.

“I don't think it's an outcome that I would personally want to bet on, but if I were to summarize, it sounds like you think it's unlikely Reality Labs will ever become a meaningful contributor to shareholder value for meta investors.”
