I'd love to hear peoples thoughts about what they think the biggest tech Phil has been in recent times in or something that looks like it was gonna change the world and then ended up being in an absolute dad for me I'd say Google glass I mean initially it look like it was gonna be on everyone's face everyone's gonna be like living in this meta verse with his glasses on the head and then it disappeared it was just never to be seen again I think that or maybe the blackberry bringing out touchscreen phones but You guys think
Sorry mate, I had to say it just because it was you. I actually, I think you said it in your note man, metaverse, metaverse with what was in total they got, 40-50 users including Mr Zuckerberg himself.
I think with crypto it's a decent shell because there's not actually been any real life utility of it yet Well, not widespread But the metaverse has just been a fail from the beginning. So So, yeah, we'll see if that changes.
It just meant it as a joke to begin with but now that you say it actually yeah with the real life application though it has even though it's also lost a lot of wealth it has created a lot of wealth At least there's usage, there's our actual users.
Yeah, that's a good way to think about it. I mean, it was a trillion dollar industry at some point. So, it did get somewhere, but I agree, real life usability, not quite there yet, but it could still be one day.
You know what? I think that crypto now is like the internet was in the 80s and 90s, where the only thing you could do on it was get scammed. Why is this here? Nobody had a vision for it. Bye! But look at it now.
or even something like calculus which was discovered several times, several hundred years before we actually found a use for it, And now the world runs on calculus.
I think that the technology of crypto has the potential to fundamentally change how society works. It's just that the visionaries have not yet stepped in to transform it into that. So crypto now is like the internet was in the 90s. but give it 20 years, tops promise.
That a Segway that the guy actually like went out there to the Grand Canyon that invented it like died on a Segway at the Grand Canyon from what I understand I think that's right there's a really stupid
I did not know that but that is a terrible way to go it's always strange when someone events as you get killed by their invention too but yeah and to be fair to Segway everyone did think it was cool for a while but
I'd say the PSP when it came out it was far ahead of its time but the way they just didn't capitalise on the kind of forwardthinking innovation they initially came up with is just that is a fact
Well they did move onto the PS Vita eventually was good I have it at one point and it was ahead of its time but they they ruled away from portable gaming systems which I think is a mistake there is a good thing on the PS Vita and they can deafly improve on it
Bro y'all remember Google glasses like everybody was just like oh yeah the streets beneath this it's gonna change the game and then nobody bought the shit.
