Depending on who you are, when someone brings up the metaverse, you either get really excited, or you have no clue what they’re talking about. Or both! Liberty and Scott have each found themselves in one of these boats. So they’re diving deep into the data to find out what in the world the metaverse actually is, what it’s not, and if it’s going to be a thing that helps society flourish, or if it will be our demise. They talk with experts to get clear definitions and to find out if we’ll be living in a virtual reality world years from now.
Liberty and Scott speak with Joe Paradiso, director of the MIT Media Lab's Responsive Environments Group; and Eric Ravenscraft, technology writer for WIRED
