Nick Clegg, head of global affairs for Meta Platforms Inc., took to the metaverse on Wednesday to insist that the future of computing will take place on that still not-quite-yet-defined virtual world.
The metaverse in this case was a virtual space in Meta’s Horizon Workrooms, where Clegg, logged in from London, spoke with a handful of reporters who were wearing borrowed Meta Quest headsets in Washington. The group appeared as torsos seated around a large wood table, though only Clegg’s avatar actually looked like him.
