Join us for an engaging session as we dive into the Metaverse—a digital frontier shaping how we work, socialise, and live. This talk will explore the potential of virtual worlds and augmented realities to transform various aspects of society, from our daily interactions to the future of jobs, education, entertainment, and more. We'll discuss the ethical considerations, opportunities, and challenges posed by an increasingly immersive digital space and potentially debunk any misconceptions about the technology.

Discussion points:

* What the Metaverse actually is.
* The appearance of the Metaverse in fiction and papers in the past 30 years.
* Where to find the Metaverse now and how you can use it.
* The opportunities and challenges for its wide-scale implementation.
* Why there might be no option but to embrace it.

Whether you're a tech enthusiast, curious about the future, or looking to understand the societal impact of these new technologies, this talk will generate zealous discussions and offer a much-needed taster for our evolving virtual landscape. We provide a very welcoming and progressive approach for all voices and opinions and would highly encourage you to come and participate!
