The #1 question in my mind is when will we see metaverse based apps appearing in the enterprise?

The metaverse is far from dead; it's continuing to grow and transform. As the concept evolves, advances in AI and increased computational power will likely drive its resurgence in popularity. My biggest concern, however, is the potential policy gaps and the psychological impact it may have, where virtual experiences could overshadow reality. I hope technology will be applied toward constructive use cases.

Curious: what would be the #1 enterprise app being adopted and widely used in the metaverse space?

If by enterprise applications you're referring to solutions like SAP or BI, I'm not aware of any direct equivalents in the metaverse. The purpose of the metaverse seems different and varies by industry. Gaming platforms like Fortnite and Roblox are already well-established. Food and beverage companies, such as Coca-Cola and Pepsi, are partnering for marketing opportunities in this space. The education and travel industries have also adopted it. However, finance and healthcare are still navigating challenges around data security, confidentiality, and privacy policies. Meanwhile, the real estate sector is taking advantage of the metaverse's potential.

The metaverse is far from over; it’s evolving and discovering its true potential. We’re seeing the rise of virtual workspaces and immersive retail experiences, which hint at its future. As innovation continues, expect the metaverse to seamlessly integrate into healthcare and education, becoming a crucial part of our digital world.

I believe, it is gone. You can also check latest Garner Radar, it is definitively out of "sonar".

The metaverse is not dead. It is right where it is expected to be from a hype adoption perspective. Innovation is driven primarily by use case failure. This is where the metaverse is right now. I expect growth as use cases become more relevant.
