About a year ago, Mark Zuckerberg faced ridicule and criticism for his ambitious plans to build a future for humanity with the creation of the metaverse. Despite rebranding Facebook to meta, his dream of creating a virtual reality world that connected people in ways never seen before fell short when his company faced numerous setbacks. His ambitious plans were further hampered when Apple unveiled their own VR AR headset, the Apple Vision Pro, leaving Zuckerberg in a difficult position.

However, just when it seemed that Zuckerberg was down and out, he made a surprising comeback. In a casual video recorded on his couch, Zuckerberg addressed the shortcomings of Apple’s Vision Pro headset, exposing its flaws and touting the superiority of meta’s Quest 3. Not only did he highlight the technical deficiencies of the Vision Pro, but he also emphasized the value and potential of the Quest 3, positioning it as the better product.

Zuckerberg’s casual yet devastating video not only showcased the shortcomings of the Apple Vision Pro but also raised questions about the future of VR and AR technology. Touching upon the limitations of current VR headsets, Zuckerberg expressed skepticism about the widespread adoption of VR, citing the cumbersome and uncomfortable nature of wearing a large headset. Despite this, he remained optimistic about the future of technology, hinting at the potential of brain chips as a more user-friendly and immersive alternative.

Zuckerberg’s remarks further stirred speculation about the future of VR and AR technology, signaling a potential shift in the market dynamics. His strong endorsement of meta’s Quest 3 and his critique of Apple’s Vision Pro not only challenged the narrative surrounding the two competing products but also prompted a broader discussion about the open and closed models of computing.

The contrasting approaches of meta and Apple to VR and AR technology paralleled the historical battles between tech giants in different eras. As Zuckerberg pointed out, the success of a closed or open model in computing has varied over time, drawing a parallel between Apple’s dominance in the mobile industry and Microsoft’s victory in the PC era.

Moreover, the mention of a “neural interface” hinted at an even more revolutionary technology on the horizon, bringing to mind the recent developments by Neuralink, which has successfully implanted chips in real-life human subjects. This revelation added a new layer of intrigue to Zuckerberg’s commentary, suggesting that the future of technology may be more radical and transformative than previously imagined.

Zuckerberg’s blunt assessment of the current state of VR and AR, coupled with his bold predictions about the future of technology, sparked a renewed debate among tech enthusiasts and industry experts. The prospect of brain chips and the potential shift towards a more open model for VR and AR technology added a new dimension to the ongoing discussion about the future of immersive experiences.

As the founder of meta, Zuckerberg’s insights carried significant weight, prompting many to reconsider their assumptions about the trajectory of VR and AR technology. His unfiltered critique of the Vision Pro, combined with his forward-looking vision for the future, underscored the complex dynamics at play in the tech industry, setting the stage for a potential paradigm shift in the realm of immersive technology.

In conclusion, Mark Zuckerberg’s unexpected resurgence and his candid commentary on the state of VR and AR technology have reignited speculation about the future of immersive experiences and the role of technology in shaping human interactions. His bold predictions and unapologetic critique of the Vision Pro have spurred a reevaluation of the current trajectory of VR and AR technology, opening up new possibilities for the future of immersive technology. As the tech industry continues to evolve, Zuckerberg’s remarks have set the stage for a potential paradigm shift, challenging established narratives and paving the way for a more open and transformative future in the realm of immersive experiences.

  3. Please don’t say meta is the ‘open’ version.. 😂😂😂

    When I bought a quest for $500, they told me I had to have a Facebook login in ‘good standing’ in order to continue to use my own headset. That I paid for.

    Oh and at the time, they forbade the sharing of the hunter Biden laptop as disinformation during a tight presidential election. Sharing it would have taken my headset out of good standing.

  13. Quest 3 is better. Apple and its budget can bring up something interesting and revolutionary.

    AR for me in gaming space I can imagine something I can take outside. To play somethign like airsoft. But that requires solid battery life and better form factor.
    Where I see massive potential for AR is army… but again. Form factor and battery life. If they figure it out, omg… soliders with their actual "mini map" locations of allied troops etc… that would be insane! Scouting enemy troop movement from the sky and then sending basically wallhack information to troops on the ground… that would be insane!

    I dont like facebook at the slightest and I am sad that it was them who bought Oculus, but what can you do. Open solution is always better for the consumer and I think VR space should win as open platform. And it is mostly gaming platform. So apple should not be able to win this space. I highly dount they will offer connection with steam..

  18. Zuckerberg is a butt hurt tool that is mad because his garbage meta went bankrupt. The Apple Vision Pro is awesome. I have used one for a few hours and think it's awesome. is it perfect? of course not. but for a BRAND NEW product, gen 1. this thing is killer. I quit watching at 1 min in another apple hater video. your eye are not all wonky. its not too heavy. most people will use it in doors where battery life isn't and issue not to mention that you can always just get a bigger batter like Mophie etc. you likely are just saying what you heard on the inter webs. you haven't bought one and tried it.

  21. I have a Quest 2, I play a few games with it and they are fun. I’ve used a Quest 3, and the pass through mode is impressive. But what I really want is a game that allows 2 or more people to run around a house shooting at each other. The games would need to be smart enough to work with your actual environment rather than a designed map. But with all the advancements in AI, this should be possible soon.

  24. one day we might see the lid blown off the collaboration between Zuck, facebook and the US intelligence agencies. We might even learn about the massive resources going into programs to control the American public, and the world's public through Facebook. Then maybe Zuck will go to prison for crimes against humanity, but I doubt it.

  33. When Motorola’s first cell phone came out, its market cap in today’s dollars was around $5b. It was a new sector, new device, and computing was pretty slow and hardware massive. Vision Pro is ahead of everyone, and admittedly a beta by Apple. But Apple isn’t worth $5b, it’s actually close to $3t, 560 times more. They have infinite resources, personnel and talent. This will improve at lightning speed.

  41. This isnt a bad idea if it werent this bulky dorky looking shit on your face. If it's as sleek as glasses, we probably wont even need phones and laptops. Still got that battery pack problem and the weight and ergonomics to tinker in the next few years.
