    That word has become meaningless, it’s being attached to anything related to multiplayer, 3D, VR, or a hundred other things. It’s a buzzword that doesn’t mean anything anymore. They’re not even sure if it’s already there or if they have yet to create it.

    The unit is called “Facebook Agile Silicon Team” and the division is called “Reality Labs”. They’re working on custom silicon for VR/AR devices (or used to). Afaict that word comes from Reuters and is not being used inside meta in this context.

      Fair enough. I think it’s a silly line to draw in this particular context, personally, but I jumped the gun on questioning your intentions. Thanks for taking the time.
