Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg Says Most Physical Things We Have ‘Aren’t Going To Need To Be There in the Future’; It Will All Be Holograms
MSM- ^ | Story by Caleb Naysmith

Posted on 06/03/2025 1:10:50 PM PDT by dennisw

In a thought-provoking conversation during Theo Von's recent podcast, Meta Platforms (META) CEO Mark Zuckerberg provided a vivid glimpse into a future dominated by augmented reality (AR) technology.

Highlighting the dramatic shift toward holographic interactions, Zuckerberg emphasized that many of the physical objects we currently rely on would soon become obsolete, replaced by immersive digital alternatives.

The podcast featured a striking example described by Von, who recounted an experience playing ping pong using Meta’s new AR glasses. Notably, the ping pong table, paddles, and even the net weren't physically present — they were holograms projected through the glasses. Von humorously noted, "It wasn't real, but it was like 3D ping pong. Someone could ride their bike through our game like it wasn’t there."

Zuckerberg responded, projecting that such AR experiences could be widely available in just four years or less. He underscored the transformative potential of AR glasses, suggesting they could largely replace smartphones.

Considering 1 to 2 billion people already wear glasses, he sees AR glasses as a natural, non-disruptive progression in everyday technology use, accessible to individuals at varying technological sophistication levels.

A hologram of my washing machine isn’t going to get my clothes clean.

Some people can be really smart in one narrow field, and very stupid in most others.

Yes. They're plain green and already in use. They're not really a hologram but are a digital image.



Video teleconference and chat users can already select all kinds of backgrounds instead of their apartment. Now if they could only mask the chirp of the smoke detector...

Do we really want to live in a fictional video game?

You already are, even if you're not the one watching it. When enough people around you do, you're dragged in as well.

Yeah I know... I have been saying that for years now. These last two generations are living in a fantasy fiction world like in a video game. Their sense of reality is shot. They live as if they can just respawn and try the level over again if they fail. They have absolutely no comprehension that this is for keeps and there is no do over.

The point is that they want to take things which are currently free (like ping pong), and monetize them with Elek-Tro-Vison. ™

Don't want any part of this nonsense.
