HOW WILL THE METAVERSE IMPACT REAL LIFE?
The Metaverse is a virtual place, where people could do literally everything they do in reality. What needs to be emphasised is the fact that the Metaverse will be used to a much greater extent than we may think.
1. JOBS IN METAVERSE
To begin with, it will be yet another place where people will find employment. Adrien Book in his article created a list of potential jobs in the Metaverse:
- World Builder – sounds cool, right?
- Metaverse Research Scientist
- Ecosystem Developer
- Metaverse Hardware Builder
- Metaverse Planner
- Metaverse Safety Manager
2. EDUCATION IN METAVERSE
What’s more, experts state that the Metaverse will significantly change the educational system for the better.
Just imagine medical students who will be studying human bodies without the typical, old-fashioned textbooks. Professors will be able to move their students’ avatars inside a human body via Metaverse. Imagine having anatomy classes inside a zoomed human stomach.
Just think about Geography at school… It will no longer be a 2-hour long monologue about the rocks, but thanks to Metaverse it will be possible to literally go back in time and see those fossils in a recreated world.
By using Virtual Reality, teachers will be able to explain different issues in a much more engaging and entertaining way.
3. ADMINISTRATION IN METAVERSE
Last but not least, is the example of Seoul which is going to enter Metaverse as the first major city. According to the city authorities, the citizens will be allowed to conveniently meet the administrative officials to make civil complaints and do the consultations in Metaverse by 2023. Obviously, the idea of moving administrational matters to the digital world by using VR and AR got much more attention as a result of the pandemic. To show the scale, South Korea has invested over $2.5 billion in the idea of an innovative, modern city of Seoul that is called The Seoul Vision 2030.
