Scoble predicts billions of evolving personas per person, ahead of Meta Connect avatar demo
Scobleizer · x · 2026-09-16
Quoting a report that Meta may demo full-body photorealistic hologram calls with Phoenix at next week's Connect, Scoble argues the endgame isn't one lifelike avatar per person. While praising Meta's Codec Avatars and Apple's Personas, he predicts each person will eventually have hundreds of millions to billions of personas that shift as you talk and live — changing avatars like changing clothes. He frames this as an investor's deep read of the avatar industry.
