The internet is undergoing a transformation driven by trust issues with incumbent providers and the rise of Web3 and the Metaverse. Current large-scale social metaverse platforms have low adoption, and advanced game-based solutions do not address societal or business needs. Platforms like Roblox, VRChat, and Nvidia Omniverse emerge as potential contenders in the metaverse landscape. Distributed compute and large language models can enhance global access equity and address emerging market needs. Uniting ecosystems with transferable goods across digital society through global ledgers like Bitcoin is crucial, despite the risks and uncertainties. AI, machine learning, and generative art play a vital role in driving innovation, safeguarding, and equity. Industry seeks an "open metaverse" to mitigate risks observed in implementations like Meta, requiring open-source and federated approaches in both telecollaboration research and AI. The nostr protocol could enable connections and federations of mixed reality spaces, mediate data synchronization, and maintain secure communication. Overcoming legislative and cultural barriers, integrating large language models and distributed compute, can address trust, accessibility, governance, and safeguarding in the digital society. Open-source tools for supported creativity and augmented intelligence using multi-modal models tackle these challenges. These tools can foster collaborative frameworks across various sectors, such as training, research, biomedical, and creative industries. By utilizing AI-driven technologies, emphasizing trust, accessibility, and open-source approaches, we can create an inclusive, global digital society while promoting technological empowerment and expanding the global ideas market.
