METAVERSE :Future or Curse

Imagine that you are playing chess with your friend or with someone you know or you are watching a movie in a cinema hall and you are doing all this from home. I know this must have sounded weird. But this is METAVERSE.

A world that is like the real world or even better.

Metaverse which comes from Greek in which Meta means beyond and Verse means universe.

The term Metaverse was first used in 1992 in a novel called Snow Crash.

In this novel, Writer imagined a world where humans cannot get out from the house because of the condition of that world, so people use a Virtual Reality to meet each other i.e. a world in which you are your avatars. and make those avatars a virtual. In the world and that world is a 3D or even better version of your own world.It is not that we do not use Virtual Reality. The best example of virtual reality are VR headsets. Many of you must have known and used these headsets.

When you're in a different world wearing these glasses while at home

So these are the best examples of Metaverse and Virtual Reality.

But wearing these headsets does not give any great experience, on the contrary, you also have problems wearing these heavy headsets in some ways, but still they are a modern experience.

In the last year 2021, the organization known as Facebook changed its name from Facebook to Meta.

Meta was previously known as Facebook, its CEO Mark Zuckerberg has proved with the statement that his organization Meta will be at the forefront in the race to make Metaverse successful.

The metaverse A whole different world but virtual or maybe something more than that.

People who believe in the concept of Metaverse say that Metaverse will be the future of the Internet in the coming times.

Experts say that maybe it can even replace the world in some cases.

You can do everything in the Metaverse that you can do in the real world or more explicitly.

Whether you want to dance in space or watch the first day first show of a movie, it can all happen in the Metaverse.

But is it needed?

Will this turn people away from real life?

Thinking about it, the Metaverse is a threat

And imagine if an organization like Meta makes it.

So people like Mark Zuckerberg will have it in their hands and this will threaten the privacy of common people who spend their time in Metaverse and if Metaverse focuses on Artificial Intelligence, then the power of A.I will also increase and it will not give any less trouble. .

But we can't ignore its benefits either.

With this we can meet the dead people or maintain their memories.

And with the help of augmented reality, we can use Metaverse to improve the real world.

So the Metaverse is in some way something that cannot be locked.

we will be able to see its effect in future only.

For now, there is so much more to talk about the metaverse.

But for the rest of the things, wait for some other day and more

knowledge.
