Buckle up for a fascinating journey through layers of insight and metaphors that explain the past, present, and future of the Web. Readers from all walks of life will learn something ancient, something novel, and something practical. Those who give it careful consideration will never see the Web the same way again. This book proclaims into existence decentralized public space above the webpage that enables the shift from personal to collective computing. The Web's next frontier is the Metaweb, a hyper-dimensional web over Today's Web that connects people and information silos, with accountability and fair value exchange. The Metaweb can drastically reduce false information, abuse, and scams, as well as enable the unprecedented level of collaboration needed to address humanity's global challenges. The book posits a symbiotic relationship between AI and the Metaweb, where AI assists in generating, organizing, and curating content, while the Metaweb provides the necessary data and context for AI to function effectively, transparently, and in alignment with humanity. The AI-assisted collaboration among humans on the Metaweb will enable a vast collective intelligence and the capture of tremendous untapped value.
The first generation of the Web, Web 1.0, endures as static webpages. Web 2.0, the second generation of the Web, brought us social networks and mobile devices. The third generation of the Web, Web 3.0, integrates blockchain, advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI), and immersive augmented and virtual reality experiences. Web3 is a shorthand for the blockchain aspects of Web 3.0.
Today, the metaverse usually shows up as a 3D virtual gaming environment in which people use avatars to connect, work and play. In VR, users can access virtual places and interact with others, buy things, have conversations, and more. These applications are Web 3.0. The Web 4.0 metaverse will also overlay the physical world, be fully immersive, and participants will switch between virtual worlds and IRL on demand. Given the speed at which technologies are being developed and companies are introducing innovative ideas in virtual experience, the Web 4.0 metaverse appears to be on the way.
