‘We are in early stages of metaverse’

Mumbai: Randi Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Zuckerberg media and sister of Meta co-founder Mark Zuckerberg, has said that the world is currently in very early stages of the development of the metaverse, even as the virtual 3D eco-system starts to take shape around the internet.
She said while metaverse, which is mostly a 3D rendition of the internet that can be played through virtual reality headgear on augmented reality content on smartphones, is currently popular in gaming and entertainment, the scope of applications will grow manifold in the coming years.
“We are in early stages, and it’s not there yet,” Zuckerberg said at Times Network’s flagship event India Economic Conclave.
