Want to see proof positive the metaverse CAN work? Step this way. Virtually, of course.
. The Zwift World Championships, ruled over by cycling's governing body the UCI, pits the platform's very fastest cyclists against each other and has produced athletes who’ve gone on to secure real pro team contracts.
And that feels like a crucial component of any desirable metaverse—transferable skills. Poker is poker, so Zuckerberg has got me there, but what other skills might we be honing and seeing real progress in while we adorn our VR headsets? Interestingly, while the route from virtual cycling to UCI-calibre competition is now clear and viable, that road can't necessarily handle traffic both ways.
And that's what's missing from the version of the metaverse we've been shown so far—any tangible benefit to our real lives. Nothing about Meta's presentation showed us a way to make us healthier, happier, or better connected with others.
