I'm hoping the "tech bros" will overreach and all become bankrupt paupers because of this. And the people who keep bankrolling them can easily make it happen because they have no wealth outside of that of their companies. Then maybe they would be willing and able to back beneficial ideas again.

Looking forward to the announcement, Karl!

Questions:

1) Would your digital heaven be psychologically therapeutic? Passages like this make me wonder:

"you would have exagerrated but manageable versions of the people and situations of your life. They exist to amplify your confidence and ability to act in the real world. This Metaverse might be a fantasy world, but the fantasy is a tool for empowerment."

2) Any lessons learned and applied from Second Life?

3) Would this involve extended reality (XR) at all?
