Reality: META has actually lost about $97B on the Metaverse. Since 2019, their Reality Labs segment has reported $13B in sales vs $110B in operating expenses.

Myth: They ended the Metaverse.

Reality: They were going to end *Horizon Worlds.* Horizon Worlds is not the Metaverse. Did you really think META spent $80-$97B on a shitty video game for unwanted children?

The Metaverse is Zuck's larger VR/AR initiative. Hence the AI Glasses.

Myth: AI Glasses are for sex perverts.

Reality: Yea maybe. But eventually will AAPL will release a set and you're gonna get Grandma a pair for Xmas.
