Abstract The Metaverse, a virtual reality (VR) space where users can interact with each other and digital objects, is rapidly becoming reality. As this new world evolves, Artificial Intelligence (AI) playing an increasingly important role in shaping its development. Integrating AI emerging technologies the Metaverse creates possibilities for immersive experiences that were previously impossible. This paper explores how integrated such as Internet of Things, blockchain, Natural Language Processing, reality, Augmented Reality, Mixed Extended Reality. One potential benefit using ability to create personalized individual users, based on their behavior preferences. Another automate repetitive tasks, freeing up time resources more complex creative endeavors. However, there are also challenges associated ensuring user privacy addressing issues bias discrimination. By examining benefits including ethical considerations, we better prepare exciting era VR. presents comprehensive survey integration continues evolve grow, it will be developers researchers stay date latest developments fully leverage potential.

Metaverse banking service is the transformation from online to a metaverse environment that allows customers access services and interact with representatives in virtual environment. The refers realm integrates physical reality digital environments, enabling users interact, socialize, participate wide range of activities through use avatars immersive technologies. While there are advantages adopt metaverse, adoption researches scarce primarily focus on game, education, sport, providing limited attention services. Furthermore, most research using standard information technology/information system models has focused organizational context adopted compulsorily. mainly voluntarily by for personal purposes. Thus, this leads difficulty drawing meaningful conclusions toward adoption. study addresses these issues proposing new unified theory acceptance technology model (UTAUMT), which consists performance expectancy (MPE), facilitating conditions (MFC), effort (MEE), social influence (MSI) determine Moreover, trust (MET) financial resources (MEF) also incorporated investigate complexity integrated been developed validated pretest (face validity content validity) pilot test before applying 491 metaverses-experienced Vietnam questionnaire approach. Partial least squares structural equation modelling-artificial neural network (PLS-SEM-ANN) provided comprehensive result as it can capture both linear nonlinear relationships. results showed only one proposed hypotheses between behavioural intention (BIM) was not supported thus needed further investigation. contributes academic literature constructs assess users’ likelihood adopting assists bank managers understanding makes them realize services’ growth opportunity pursue. Given scope focusing solely Vietnam, would be advantageous future cultural variations among mobile commerce incorporate comparative analysis across multiple countries, particular emphasis Asian nations.

Cutting-edge flood visualisation technologies are becoming increasingly important in managing urban risks, particularly from the perspective of stakeholders who play a crucial role controlling and reducing risks associated with events. This review study provides comprehensive overview stakeholder analysis this context, highlighting gaps current research paving way for future investigations. For purpose, scientific literature critical conducted based on identified relevant works to map mutual context. categorises cutting-edge into four groups - virtual reality, augmented mixed digital twin explores their adoption engaging various across five key stages risk management: prevention, mitigation, preparation, response, recovery. Results show that existing has primarily concentrated support water utilities communication general public. However, there is noticeable gap regarding engagement such as policy-makers, researchers, insurance providers. Furthermore, highlights disparities involvement damage assessment studies, lack representation policy-makers researchers. Finally, introduces concept overlooked interconnected impacts they have, which received relatively little attention previous research.
