TL;DR

• The progress we're seeing between last year's 'Eiffel Tower Selfie' screenshot and the ​in-metaverse podcast​ Zuck just did with Lex Fridman is SUPER impressive!

• Turns out, for an avatar to have that kind of graphical fidelity inside Zuck's metaverse, the human it represents has to park their meat sack in a specialized scanning room for the better part of a day.

• We're looking forward to seeing the time and tech requirements for these avatars collapse over the coming years.

We've been pretty darn harsh towards Zuck's ​metaverse​ in the past...

But we'll be the first to say it:

Hell, we'll do you one better...

The day these kind of graphic capabilities become standard within Zuck's metaverse - we'll go and buy ourselves a top-of-the-line Quest headset.

At which point, Zuck can leach as much behavioral data as he wants, direct from our eyeballs!

That said, we'll probably be safe for a while yet.

We're looking forward to seeing the time and tech requirements for these avatars collapse over the coming years.

(Even if it means we have to make good on our wager).
