It’s weird to hear John Carmack referred to as “former Meta exec”.

Yeah that's the tiniest of his achievements

Not really.

These same tired edgelord comments pop up every time he's in the news. You're so cool because you know he coded Doom in C, congrats. I think leading a 30k person team at a $500B tech vanguard might be as impressive.

I don't want to be "that person" but the 3d engine he created sparked the entire video game industry.

No single individual invented 3D video games. What did he invent computer graphics as well?

I'm saying the parts he created were the spark you moron.

It looks like OP posted an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

Maybe check out the canonical page instead: https://www.businessinsider.com/agi-could-be-worth-trillions-dollars-2030s-ex-meta-exec-2023-2
