Meta will continue trying to build a platform that they can control. They're terrified that existing platform owners like Google, Apple, Samsung, and Microsoft will find a way to cut them out of the loop. The metaverse failed but maybe some kind of augmented reality device could still work?

They're going to try to push those stupid glasses next. Not convinced they'll succeed since it's not just the technology problem they need to solve. How do I find PMF for a product which encourages others to physically assault my users, while also not having it banned in various countries? We're talking about a societal shift that would need to happen and nobody's going to trust Meta again where that stuff's concerned.
