Different objectives. They could do that, if Google told them to. But they’re focusing on other things as well, like AlphaFold, Reinforcement Learning, Robotics, Medical applications, and even things like nuclear fusion.

They have their own answer to ChatGPT. They also do research on LLMs… but keep in mind that DeepMind does not develop products. They do research.

Google is the one that needs to develop products.

It’s still a new tech, the issue is that we were still behind on technology when those headsets were released. Displays have been getting better, the optical stack has been improving, developers are learning about user experience (like dizziness).

It’s still new, and we still require better hardware. Unfortunately, this won’t go away so soon. The requirements for VR games are higher than what most people can afford.

I think the next generation of consoles will be when this will explode into popularity.

Not the metaverse itself, I don’t think, but certainly entertainment. I think we will see something similar to the success of the Quest 2 soon enough. Another leap.

It’s not so much that they aren’t good enough. Facebook has the talent to make it happen in terms of software.

The issue is that, believe it or not, we do not have the necessary computing power for this yet. Well, as well as priorities…
