Mark Zuckerberg kommenterar Apples Vision Pro

Dyr och ensam tycker Metas grundare

Häromdagen visade Apple upp sitt AR/VR-headset Vision Pro och nu har Metas vd Mark Zuckerberg sagt lite vad han anser om det. Det var i ett möte med anställda på Meta som Zuckerberg delade sina första tankar om Apples Vision Pro, ett AR/VR-headset som på sikt kanske är tänkt att konkurrera med Metas VR-headset Meta Quest.

Zuckerberg sa bland annat att rent tekniskt innehöll inte Vision Pro något som Meta inte redan utforskat under utvecklingsarbetet med Meta Quest. Att Vision Pro är mer tekniskt avancerat än Meta Quest är något som även avspeglar sig i prislappen på Vision Pro. Det var något som Zuckerberg kommenterade med:

"But look, I think that their announcement really showcases the difference in the values and the vision that our companies bring to this in a way that I think is really important. We innovate to make sure that our products are as accessible and affordable to everyone as possible, and that is a core part of what we do. And we have sold tens of millions of Quests."

Vidare anser Zuckerberg att Apples vision för framtiden verkar bli en rätt så ensam historia för Vision Pros användare. Detta då i stort sett allt Apple visat upp från användandet av Vision Pro handlat om en person som sitter innesluten för sig själv i olika VR-upplevelser. Zuckerberg och Meta ser som bekant en AR/VR/XR-framtid i det så kallade Metaverse där tekniken används för att umgås med andra i virtuella världar:

"More importantly, our vision for the metaverse and presence is fundamentally social. It’s about people interacting in new ways and feeling closer in new ways. Our device is also about being active and doing things. By contrast, every demo that they showed was a person sitting on a couch by themself. I mean, that could be the vision of the future of computing, but like, it’s not the one that I want."

Här nedanför kan ni läsa hela Zuckerbergs kommentar om Vision Pro. I den inbäddade tweeten nedan spekulerar Marques Brownlee lite om varför Apple kanske inte är så sugna på Metaverse med lite referenser till "metaverse-filmen" Ready Player One.

"Apple finally announced their headset, so I want to talk about that for a second. I was really curious to see what they were gonna ship. And obviously I haven’t seen it yet, so I’ll learn more as we get to play with it and see what happens and how people use it.

From what I’ve seen initially, I’d say the good news is that there’s no kind of magical solutions that they have to any of the constraints on laws of physics that our teams haven’t already explored and thought of. They went with a higher resolution display, and between that and all the technology they put in there to power it, it costs seven times more and now requires so much energy that now you need a battery and a wire attached to it to use it. They made that design trade-off and it might make sense for the cases that they’re going for.

But look, I think that their announcement really showcases the difference in the values and the vision that our companies bring to this in a way that I think is really important. We innovate to make sure that our products are as accessible and affordable to everyone as possible, and that is a core part of what we do. And we have sold tens of millions of Quests.

More importantly, our vision for the metaverse and presence is fundamentally social. It’s about people interacting in new ways and feeling closer in new ways. Our device is also about being active and doing things. By contrast, every demo that they showed was a person sitting on a couch by themself. I mean, that could be the vision of the future of computing, but like, it’s not the one that I want. There’s a real philosophical difference in terms of how we’re approaching this. And seeing what they put out there and how they’re going to compete just made me even more excited and in a lot of ways optimistic that what we’re doing matters and is going to succeed. But it’s going to be a fun journey."
