I don’t know how to predict time. I think should touch $90 sometime in the future. Anyhoo, wave ii might be starting… if yes, expect to $40 
… no plan to sell… hate to sell in a bull market.
Still want to compete with Apple?

Meta’s launch of the Quest 3 will be compared to Apple’s more expensive Vision Pro headset. But while Apple packed as much pricey technology into its headset as possible to enable its own passthrough mode it calls “spatial computing,” Meta is seeking to match many of its features, or at least an approximation of them, at a fraction of the price. Meta’s $1,499 Quest Pro is a lower-volume product.
But if there’s one major difference between Meta and Apple at this point, it’s that the former envisions the Quest mainly as a gaming device, while Apple frames its device as a computer. Meta says it’s lined up 500 games and apps for the headset, including a Ghostbusters title, an Assassin’s Creed game, and a Stranger Things experience developed in conjunction with Netflix.
Hopefully is not a situation of Meta created a Mac while Apple created a Lisa.
This is really nuts!!
The realism is really convincing! And Meta is not transmitting a realtime scan of user’s faces. Instead they build a computer model of the faces and just send over the emotion codecs. The headset then renders this in realtime on the other end. Really insane!
Head only? First is no legs, now is no body and no legs.
Black background and feel so 2D. Is Zuck saying world is going dark?
Head is the most difficult part with many muscles all moving at the same time to form expressions. The rest of the body should be much easier to do.
I think this technology already exists, but probably required powerful processors before. Meta was able to implement it in a battery-powered system.
Yes.
Correct me if necessary.
Similar approach for video games in the early days. Download huge graphics of scenes and store in client computer. During game play, transmit only limited data for the change in scene. This requires enough memory in the client computer to store those downloaded graphics. The fact that Mark is showing a head and a dark background means Quest doesn’t have much memory to store scenes, enough for a head. Is really just a concept. A certain fruit company already demonstrate its product can do much more.
Meta is an AI company. Apple is not.
All this done in software. Hardware only costs $500.

Is there a point to repeat previous comments?
Every mf company claims to be an AI company.
A social media company is an AI company.
A car company is an AI company.
A lending company is an AI company.
A database company is an AI company.
A seminconductor company is an AI company.
A search company is an AI company.
An office productivity company is an AI company.
A video streaming company is an AI company.
Soon a dog walking company is also an AI company.
Looks very good! $500 vs Apple’s $3500 Vision Pro. If it does 90% or even just 80% of what Apple’s headset does, nobody will pay Apple $3500.
Zuck is going in balls deep. Tim Apple better be ready.
Still just a game console?
So good that he didn’t wear it during the presentation?
Did he use to present Quest launch this way or copy from somewhere?
Competition is good, let the market decide.
“if… then” 
What about “else” 
Sound like hyperventilating 
He expanded upon those thoughts on the next call, saying the company had been doing work across AI, including generative AI, “for years.”
Apple investors knew. However, many frogs living in SF don’t know.
Cook said generative AI, the technology that has taken the world by storm via chatbots such as ChatGPT, was “very interesting,” but that caution was needed.
Only one company care. Other companies care less, they use AI to steal more info from individuals and channel content to influence our thought. AI startups are worse, they are ok with homeless, drug addicts and criminals.
Quest is not just a gaming console. And nothing wrong with being a gaming console either. That’s a more realistic work case than Apple’s “spatial computing” ie typing on a document in space.
I don’t see Tim Cook wearing his vision pro. Did you see?
Meta has its own LLM which it makes available open source. Apple is still trying to hire more AI people. People less biased are able to see the difference.
Companies with nothing to offer always preach “caution”. The moment they have something they all conveniently forgot what they preached. Very typical Apple.
