    The Metaverse was promised as the next great leap for the internet—a decentralised, immersive world where we would work, shop, and socialise. But as we approach the dates set by major analysts for mass adoption, the reality looks very different.


    In this episode of Short Fuse, Ollie and Duncan take a critical look at the state of Extended Reality (XR) and the Metaverse. We explore the massive disconnect between the aggressive predictions made by industry experts and the actual adoption rates we see today.

    Dead Internet Theory
    Nov 20 2025

    Is the internet already dead?


    The "Dead Internet Theory" suggests the web is no longer a human place but is dominated by bots and AI-generated content


    In this episode, Duncan and Ollie use the Short Fuse Tech Tracker as evidence to debate the theory. We discuss how AI "slop" and bot-to-bot engagement (especially on LinkedIn) are killing authentic human interaction


    This leads to a "bifurcation" of the internet: one layer for AI agents and transactions, and another, separate layer for verified humans
