Zuckerberg saying in-office productivity is better than remote. Meta trying to sell us that VR is the future. Fucking legendary.
in-office in metaverse is the solution
In office , in your own home ,in the metaverse, is the new WFH
He's coming full circle. It's not enough to recreate Second Life. He wants to recreate LAN parties too
Haha u made a good point. I guess in the end he doesnβt believe the Metaverse π© himself
Go to the office within metaverse and work from there lol
For anyone that cares this is not even remotely accurate or what he said. You can of course read it for yourself but real news is far less exciting than fake news I suppose.
Autism detected
Rofl, that's a new deflection. Let me try again, this isn't true, see for yourself lol.
It's ironic
It's untrue*
that doesn't make it any less ironic.
I would say ar vr is huge success if 1B+ users and spend more than a hour daily and maybe people use it for games and fitness most time. It does not have to replace work from office to be successful. I am not claiming ar vr has bright future. my point is one failure should not conclude entire project failure that was aiming 5-10 years future.
The point is that Zuck has been pushing a VR dream on us about it being used for office tasks. That was the entire backstory behind the Quest Pro -- a device not just used for games, but used for productivity in the workplace. Watch ANY of our Quest Pro propaganda videos and you will see this mentioned constantly. And yet, Zuck doesn't mention VR once for the remote worker issue he highlighted. If he's giving up on VR for the workplace, let's pivot to full-on gaming already. And then get rid of WP altogether and use Slack.
Based on the data available VR headsets (not only Quest) suffer from the same issue as smart speakers. After users buy, or are gifted, one of these devices they use it for a couple of weeks then never use it again. It's not sticky. There's very little sustained use once the novelty wears off.
Zuck is repeating everything Elon has done as far as running Twitter.
Lol!
@Ojse57 - you are apparently legendary as well. You're quoted here: https://lowendbox.com/blog/the-metaverse-doesnt-work-so-zuck-wants-everyone-back-in-the-office/
That's cuz VR not good enough yet. Get ur ass to the office and make it better
The problem is that Zuck is talking shit internally about remote work and lists all these flaws with it that an intense data science review of the factors has played out. E.g., newer employees who are earlier in their careers (+younger) who never worked in office are having a harder time being productive. Never once mentions using VR devices to help. The entire Quest Pro line was made with the constant voice telling us that it would be a "serious" device. Not just for gaming - but for actual real work. Yet almost no team in meta actually dogfoods it. Some internal guy said it best in response to Zuck, saying something like "It would be discouraging seeing Ronald eating a Whopper. Why are we dressing up like the π€‘ if we aren't willing to eat our own Big Macs?"
