## Quote — verbatim

> Metaverse is going to be the future, and Metaverse needs really high-power compute... How do you source compute, high-density compute for a Metaverse that's rendering in your vision pro? That's only possible when you can reduce the latency. The way you can reduce the latency is through any central cloud.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Continuing the post-parity vision; final phrase is Whisper garble — from the argument, he means latency reduction requires a *decentralized* cloud near users, since headsets can't carry the compute themselves.
