Washington: Seems like Canadian singer-songwriter and record producer Grimes is not convinced if Mark Zuckerberg is qualified enough to run the Metaverse.
According to Page Six, she expressed her disdain over the tech mogul’s plans to expand the company formerly known as Facebook into a metaverse pioneer. Grimes feels that he’s “wildly underqualified” to steer the ship.
Grimes, who has previously dated Elon Musk, slammed the Facebook founder’s Metaverse avatar by taking to Twitter and writing, “If Zuck ‘oversees the Metaverse’ it is dead and
people who care about art and culture are built something else. Also, this is bad art,” She had also shared the image of Mr.Zuckerberg’s metaverse avatar and referring to it, Grimes wrote, “The quality of this image alone speaks to how wildly under-qualified he is to build an alternate reality, literally every indie game looks better.”
Mark Zuckerberg directed a company-wide shift toward the metaverse last fall, going as far as to rebrand Facebook’s corporate name to Meta, as the embattled social media platform contends with a series of scandals over its business practices and internal policies.
The image Grimes talked about had been posted by Mr.Zuckerberg on Facebook last week however, the response it got was far from what he had hoped.
