01 / belief

I think the Marc Andreessen or Chris Dixon perspective of saying that it can be a construct for a new form of LLC — which, of course, many states, most notably Wyoming, which was the first LLC state, is legalizing — that seems more important.

Snap Spectacles, their augmented reality devices, last 30 minutes. They augment less than 10 percent of your view at one-quarter of the resolution we think is needed and one-quarter of the frame rate.

03 / evaluation

There’s actually very, very little you can do in Hollywood violence-wise to get above a PG-13 rating. But you get anywhere close to genitals, and it does not matter, you’re going up in rating.

04 / belief

I think the big hope — and we’re seeing this with a lot of new technologies — is that it’s still a broadcast model, and it’s still on time delay, which is to say, your audience is responding to what you did 5 to 30 seconds ago, and they have no real interaction beyond sending an emoji and cheering you on, perhaps voting on the next game that you play.

The third thing that I would say is, if you take a look at the arc of what you just mentioned — the 2D internet — it began asynchronous with static files, text, no colors even.

08 / belief

Extending that into specific instantiation of people thousands of miles apart, using devices that aren’t connected to one another, where the actual motion need not at all correspond to the receiving sensation — I think is going to be challenging.

What we can say is, certainly, I think we’ve been surprised over the past 20 years by the degree of connection that’s achievable just through text on Tinder or Hinge.

12 / evaluation

The median person, I would kick this out more than 15 years. But I will say one of the easy indicators that we can see, without conflating Roblox to the internet — because that would be like saying AOL is the internet — three-quarters of kids in the United States, UK, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, three-quarters between the ages of 9 and 12 use Roblox, a single metaverse-style platform — only organized around consumer leisure — regularly.

14 / commitment

I wrote this book because I’ve spent five years thinking about the theme — what matters, what doesn’t, what we need, what we want, what will happen automatically and what won’t.

15 / prediction

I think we often think about this linear question of I’ll go to a place that I can’t today, but you think of it as you, Tyler, a human roughly 6 feet tall, not what would I do if I were atomic?

16 / evaluation

I would say, when you’re spending 16, 20 hours in a forward operating base, sitting out in the woods, sleeping in a tent — we didn’t have cell phones, and you’re just there for two weeks — learning how to work, get along with, and trust those you have very little in common with is an enduring skill universally applicable.

17 / prediction

Of course, most things that you do now require some form of digital identity, whether you manage it or not. This is important because there are many who believe that (a) they’re never going to want to play a game, (b) they’re never going to be interested in a VR headset, © they can’t see the practical applications of the metaverse, but most of it’s going to be behind the scenes.
