Your thesis is:

a) people didn't join metaverse because there's nobody else there

b) generative AI like GPT and Stable Diffusion enable the creation of real-looking and real-sounding bots for a VR world

c) metaverse is now interesting again because you're not there alone

I don't know that a sparsely populated metaverse is THE reason to be skeptical about Meta's metaverse.

Also, this reads more like an argument for the usefulness of GPT-4 over the Metaverse
