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.”

        we had a poster here a while back that had an experience (a friend of theirs did a low-effort “happy birthday” prompt to send to them), but it looks like the thread is gone because they’re moving their account

        extremely fucking oof that it’s a one-click button next to the input

        you’re fine Brian, nobody will know you live in Punxsutawney PA

        if i’m uninspired i’d rather stick to a simple “hey happy birthday!”, sending generated slop is just like buying a birthday card and not writing anything in it

    I haven’t been near anybody Meta’s platforms for a decade at least. Sounds like it is still a shit hole of “content” designer and curated to push consumption down peoples throats. No wonder it’s still called a feed…
