    I think that there’s a lot more potential in AI than there is in VR, which was his last expensive pet project.

      They came up with some cool stuff for VR

      The problem is there was zero overarching vision, no real explanation of how this makes life better (hurray, you can go to VR work meetings! Why would I buy this again?). Plus, Meta is fucking radioactive to the power users who would buy this stuff.

      Similarly, Meta is so toxic I would never trust their AI without my data, and this is playing out with tons of leaks for people using their AI system Muse.

      So while AI has more promise than VR, you can’t trust that to Meta anyways.
