We live in a time of fast technological advancement, and each Internet breakthrough has a significant impact on people's lives. The delivery of knowledge has been revolutionised by technical advancements, from printing to television to the Internet. The medium is a metaphor, and the more direct transfer of information makes it more difficult for individuals to perceive "truth." The project predicts that by 2040, an immersive virtual world with the "Metaverse" as its basic framework will be the primary working, living, learning, and social environment for humans, and it analyses the influence of the virtual environment on people's cognition and perception of danger.
