"Together we will explore what the Metaverse is, how it works, the many use cases we are already aware of in the Metaverse, as well as look at why there are so many more we cannot yet see. I will also introduce you to some of the main threats and challenges businesses and individuals face as the Metaverse evolves and grows, sharing potential solutions to make this an inclusive virtual world that all of us can enjoy and use to its full potential. I will also explain some of the key elements of technology that underpin the Metaverse in its current form and that will provide the necessary foundations for its growth and evolution in the future -- such as blockchain, cryptocurrency, AI and deep learning. I will build out the picture with you, helping you to turn some of the greyed-out map into a world filled with technicolour and exciting opportunities. By the end of this book, I hope you will feel confident to set out and explore more of this uncharted territory on your own"-- |
