In a quarterly earnings call that was overwhelmingly about AI and Meta’s plans for it, Zuckerberg said that new, AI-generated feeds are likely to come to Facebook and other Meta platforms. Zuckerberg said he is excited for the “opportunity for AI to help people create content that just makes people’s feed experiences better.” Zuckerberg’s comments were first reported by Fortune.
“I think we’re going to add a whole new category of content, which is AI generated or AI summarized content or kind of existing content pulled together by AI in some way,” he said. “And I think that that’s going to be just very exciting for the—for Facebook and Instagram and maybe Threads or other kind of Feed experiences over time.”
That’s cool, I quit Facebook ages ago.

Good to know that they really have thought it through. Reminds me of the kind of user story our project manager writes.
The goal has always been engagement prisons. Where people never leave the platform. With generated content this must seem like a final step. They don’t need to make people to interact with each other in ways that keeps both of them engaged. They don’t need to leech content from other sites while preventing people from going to the site. With generated content people will interact with themselves while engaged in completely fabricated content. It’s even more dystopian than ever.
I think I’m with him on this one. Replacing all the people on social with AI agents would give us back so much free time! And we could even restart socializing for real.
Go on Zuckerberg, give us a Facebook made only of AI agents creating fake pictures of inexistent gatherings and posting them, so other AIs can recommend them and million of other AIs can comment on them!
You are an unsung hero, Zuckerberg, but one day they’ll understand and thank you
Am i mistaken or did he regress to a typical CEO type, from the way he can’t put together one single sentence without stumbling over another one?
Please mark that picture nsfw it’s gross as fuck
Then stop damaging morale, Zuck.
Don’t you think he looks tired?
Media intentionally uses bad pictures of the people they don’t like and vice versa.
He looked pretty weird in his sweet baby rays video and he was the one putting that out.
I was quoting Doctor Who ;)
Soooooooooo……. More ads and bullshit then? I regret not the 5 or so clicks it took to delete my account.
The metaverse a resounding failure, Facebook has latched on to the AI hype train in hopes of making the company relevant. They’re basically put of ideas on how to feed the beast of “forever growth” the markets demand.
They have a slim chance if they keep subsidizing VR headsets to hold a and luceative chunk of the VR market when that actually takes off. VR is genuinely cool enough that enough people will get hooked once they experience a headset on their face with a VR experience that jives with them
VR is a cool gimmick but I don’t enjoy it for gaming.
I’ve played VR before. But I don’t see it as a necessity just to play video games. It’s also incredibly disorienting after playing for a while, and it’s expensive to get the VR headsets, usually, also requiring you to already have a console, or PC to hook up to, so why wouldn’t we just play regular games then?
VR is great when playing Warthunder in aircraft, where you can easily track an opponents plane while maneuvering your aircraft after them.
For tank and naval battles - meh.
All of the things you listed are either being worked on, or are mischaracterizations of the state of VR.
I’m just not sold on it. I can play the same games without VR, and they work just fine for me. I think most people feel the same way.
