October 26, 2023

In episode #2592, we discuss the concept of the Metaverse and its potential impact on marketing. We reference an interview between Lex Friedman and Mark Zuckerberg, where they discuss the possibility of conducting interviews in the Metaverse. We express our skepticism about the Metaverse as a social network but see potential in its applications for virtual reality and augmented reality. We discuss scenarios such as virtual family gatherings and virtual car shopping. We also compare the hardware capabilities of Facebook’s Oculus with Apple’s rumored VR/AR device, expressing our belief that Apple’s hardware will be superior. Overall, we agree that the Metaverse, in whatever form it takes, will have a significant impact on advertising and marketing.
