Social Block – Episode #15: The Future = AR/VR + AI + Web3? with Aragorn Meulendijks (Mr. Metaverse)
Today the Social Block is getting more techy and more philosophical with an episode dedicated to how Web3, paired with augmented and virtual realities, as well as AI will shape the future.
Now, imagining the future is no easy feat and to help Magy trudge through the many possibilities before humanity, we had Aragorn Meulendijks, more popularly known as Mr. Metaverse. As a historian turned futurist, Aragorn dedicates a lot of his time theorizing about what’s to come.
Aragorn’s vision of the future, definitely includes Web3, making this the perfect listen for our community. He and Magy discussed:
💰 What will the currency of the future be?
💡 Can AI have ideas?
👓 Are we going to live in a virtual world or will augmented reality be all the rage?
🦾 Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) and will humans become cyborgs?
🧒 At what point in our education should we introduce AI, and AR?VR?
