Meta is planning to lay off employees on Wednesday in the unit of its metaverse-oriented Reality Labs division focused on creating custom silicon, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters on Tuesday.
That word has become meaningless, it’s being attached to anything related to multiplayer, 3D, VR, or a hundred other things. It’s a buzzword that doesn’t mean anything anymore. They’re not even sure if it’s already there or if they have yet to create it.
The unit is called “Facebook Agile Silicon Team” and the division is called “Reality Labs”. They’re working on custom silicon for VR/AR devices (or used to). Afaict that word comes from Reuters and is not being used inside meta in this context.
Fair enough. I think it’s a silly line to draw in this particular context, personally, but I jumped the gun on questioning your intentions. Thanks for taking the time.
Yeah you’re right, it‘s useless to question the usage of that word, it’s a lost cause. I liked the word and concept before meta took it over, which is why it still annoys me every time I see it. But I should just let it go.
