Zuckerberg is back with some new AI chicanery! Cheaper VR headsets, glasses souped up with their AI assistant, and the desperation for his products to be loved by literally anyone.
Takeaways
- All Facebook products are now equipped with an AI assistant powered by ChatGPT and with the likeness of celebrities. They will weirdly react as you read your prompt.
- Posts and DMs can now be composed by AI. Just in case you thought the latest post from grandpa was real.
- Instagram now has AI picture filters.
- The Meta Quest is now more affordable. It’ll still spy on you of course.
- You get to play your 2008 looking games on your Quest, but that’s about it. Since the games must designed with the Quest in mind, it’s likely it will stagnate.
- Partnering with Ray-Ban, Facebook has engineered camera glasses and no doubt will humiliate streamers, let creepers creep, and grant Facebook the ability to data harvest your vision.
- Llama and other Facebook products received improvements stolen from other open-source learning models.
