Takeaways |
The metaverse has experienced a cycle of hype and buzz, but the concept and development of virtual shared experiences in both virtual and physical spaces are still ongoing.
Spatial computing, an advanced form of 3D-centric computing, uses AI, computer vision, and extended reality to seamlessly blend virtual content into the physical world.
The expansion of computing and the evolution of the internet into the physical world will transform human-to-human communication and human-computer interaction.
The development of AI that can see and understand the physical world is crucial for the advancement of spatial computing and the metaverse.
While spatial computing offers convenience and augmentation of reality, there are concerns about privacy, virtual air rights, and the potential negative impact of constant data collection.
Cloud computing has led to the centralization of the internet, with major platforms dominating the landscape.
The expansion of computing and data in the metaverse requires a combination of hardware, software, connectivity, and data management.
Enforcement and regulation of the metaverse pose significant challenges, and there is a need for technical understanding and collaboration between policymakers and experts.
State laws are being enacted to address potential harms, but federal regulation is necessary to create a cohesive framework.
Web3 and blockchain technologies offer opportunities to create solutions for age gating, provenance, and other challenges in the metaverse.

Reset reflects on the impact of four years of COVID-19 with Steven Thrasher, author of The Viral Underclass: The Human Toll When Inequality and Disease Collide, and Megan E. Doherty, co-leader of Care Not COVID, an advocacy group pushing for safer healthcare settings.
