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.

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
Genuinely curious how long you could continue getting people to sink advertising dollars into the bot playground. If he played it smart I bet he could get a solid decade or so of people paying to show ads to AIs without telling them all the people are gone. Maybe longer, if he's really smart and actually tells them for real that there's no people in there but that their marketing materials will be incorporated into the AI in/output.
Please mark that picture nsfw it’s gross as fuck
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.

Need to get Elon's AI robot to master ju-jit-su and target Zuck.
Funny, the first thing I do when I recognize that something is AI-generated media, I make an effort never to visit that site/channel/feed/whatever ever again.
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,
Good to know that they really have thought it through. Reminds me of the kind of user story our project manager writes.
Keep in mind that in quarterly financial statements, any forward-looking promises made are pretty much legally binding so CEOs never give specifics.
That's cool, I quit Facebook ages ago.
I setup 2FA on Facebook using one of those USB keys ages ago. I tried to login again recently but it tells me to use an authenticator app which I never configured, and when I try to use the USB key it blinks at me. I know the key works because I use it for other things. When I looked into logging in somehow else it brought up some crazy page telling me I'd have to send my license to Facebook or some such shit. Oh well, guess it's a dead profile now.
Don't you think he looks tired?
Media intentionally uses bad pictures of the people they don't like and vice versa.
I don't think Zuckerberg has any good pictures of himself.
I was quoting Doctor Who ;)
He looked pretty weird in his sweet baby rays video and he was the one putting that out.
Soooooooooo……. More ads and bullshit then? I regret not the 5 or so clicks it took to delete my account.
"Sponsored Content"
I'm so glad I've gotten off the big tech bandwagon by now...
Every change and addition made to Facebook since it first started has been for the worse. This manchild is a monster who’s irresponsibility has literally caused genocides in Africa.
This man is a Muppet. He just wants to exploit the people who live in this world and use his services for profits. What a legacy to leave behind...
He won't get me. I deleted Facebook over a decade ago. The writing was all over the walls, everyone...
I know that's probably a generic insult, but he kinda does look like beaker from the Muppets.
muppet in the sense that there is a giant hand up his ass pulling around his insides and making him do/say things the person on the arm wants said/done. but hey what do I know ya know
"And I think that that’s going to be just very exciting for the..."
Plebs? He almost slipped lol
I believe it's "dumb fucks" if history is anything to go by.
It's probably to nullify the incentive to use external LLMs, thus marking everything generated on the platform by the platform as such and also meaning Zuck can regulate what can actually be generated controlling the flow of LLM-gen content. If you put it that way, it doesn't sound that senseless.
It might also be an attempt to fence in AI-generated content in its own feed, so that doesn't infest everything else as much, which doesn't seem that unreasonable either.
🤮
For real. Companies being extra pushy with their product always makes me picture their decision makers saying:
"What do you mean, «we're being too pushy»? Those are customers! They are not human beings, nor deserve to be treated as such! This filth is stupid and un-human-like, it can't even follow simple orders like «consume our product»! Here we don't appeal to its reason, we smear advertisement on its snout until it needs to open the mouth to breath, and then we shove the product down its throat!"
Is this accurate? Probably not. But it does feel like this, specially when they're trying to force a product with limited use cases into everyone's throats, even after plenty potential customers said "eeew no". Such as machine text and image generation.
Something which clarified Zuck's behavior in my mind was an interview where he said something along the lines of, "I could sell meta for x amount of dollars, but then I'd just start another company anyways, so I might as well not."
The guy isn't doing what financially makes sense. He's Uber rich and working on whatever projects he thinks are cool. I wish Zuck would stop sucking in all his other ways, but he just doesn't care about whether his ideas are going to succeed or not.
Agree. It is unfortunate however, that when being impossibly rich and protected for the rest of your life, you still work on how to squeeze the most out of humanity instead of focusing on something greater.
The rich want to get richer, the strong want to get stronger, collectors want more collectibles, records are meant to be broken, and so on. It’s never been about the destination - it’s about the journey. Having things isn’t fun; getting things is fun.
Then stop damaging morale, Zuck.
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?
Statements made in quarterly financial calls are a very particular level of legally binding, so CEOs sound like that because they are terrified of making promises that won’t be kept.
Obvously Facebook- and Zuckerberg-mocking AI content must continue until morale improves.
I heard Zuckerberg is poop.
Eh, not my best effort, but I'm tired. I just pushed a 600lbs man 2/3rds of a mile while he told me trump was going to save us all.
He never clarified from what trump would be saving us from. Probably because he himself hasn't been told yet from Fox News. Because it's more profitable for Fox News to make vague threats in the world, never define them, but pass them off as immediate danger. That way, if they're ever brought to court, they can truthfully claim that at no point have they ever reported the news. Instead they claim they are a fictional entertainment channel. That's real. That happened. Fox News, under oath, openly stated that they do not report facts, and are an entertainment company. They were forced to admit under penalty of pergury, that they have as much journalistic integrity as The Onion.
But it would be so great if there were some mark they could use, by convincing him that theres an enemy from within. Then put that man in the white house. I mean, can you imagine??? Manipulating a narcisist who happens to be the president, into doing whatever you want by feeding him, and the rest of the nation, a never ending series of lies? And as an entertainment company, you have zero obligation to report factually and objectively. Instead you can lead him down whatever path you want!!! COULD YOU IMAGINE????
Ok. Back to reality. Zuckerberg is poop.
What is Mark has been a sentient AI for some time?
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
