Facebook chairman Mark Zuckerberg, at a press conference early last month, noted the metaphysical economy: “I think of metaphysics as the next generation of the internet. instead of being an external screen that we look at on our mobile phones or computer screens, the internet will become a part of us and we are part of it. the internet of the future is something we can be within,” Zuckerberg defines this new environment, the metaverse environment, as “an immersive virtual environment, where you can be with people in the digital environment and the digital community, that we can think of as an incarnate internet, in which you exist rather than just looking at it as it is now.”
