The company has rebranded to “Limitless,” and is now offering an AI-powered meeting suite and a hardware pendant that can record your conversations.
Company co-founder Dan Siroker first posted the idea of a conversation-recording pendant last October and started accepting orders at $59.
Siroker posted the final design this week, along with the news of the company’s pivot.
It’s a web app, Mac app, Windows app, and a wearable.
We plan to reimplement many of our user’s favorite Rewind features directly into Limitless,” Siroker said.
The Oversight Board, Meta’s semi-independent policy council, it turning its attention to how the company’s social platforms are handling explicit, AI-generated images.
Tuesday, it announced investigations into two separate cases over how Instagram in India and Facebook in the U.S. handled AI-generated images of public figures after Meta’s systems fell short on detecting and responding to the explicit content.
In other words, after two reports, the explicit AI-generated image remained on Instagram.
The second case relates to Facebook, where a user posted an explicit, AI-generated image that resembled a U.S. public figure in a Group focusing on AI creations.
Meta’s response and the next stepsIn response to the Oversight Board’s cases, Meta said it took down both pieces of content.
On Sunday, two competitive esports players appeared to get hacked during a live streamed game, prompting the organizers to postpone the tournament.
Players were competing in the Apex Legends Global Series, a competitive esports tournament for the popular shooter game Apex Legends, which has a $5 million total prize pool.
I’m getting hacked, I’m getting hacked bro, I’m getting hacked,” said Genburten, holding his hands up during the game, according to a video they posted on X, which was also posted on multiple YouTube channels.
“I’m cheating, I’m cheating, I’m cheating, I’m fucking cheating,” said ImperialHal.
We will share more information soon,” announced the official Apex Legends Esports account on X.
Meta said Thursday that it has started to test two “most requested” features: drafts and in-app camera.
You can write the post you might want to post later in the composer, and just swipe down to save the draft.
The Threads app also shows a different composer icon in the bottom bar when there is a saved draft that you haven’t posted yet.
Along with the new drafts feature, Mark Zuckerberg posted a photo through the new camera shortcut that opens in the composer.
This shortcut makes it easier if you want to quickly post a photo to Threads.
Adults on TikTok lean camera-shy, a new study from Pew Research Center suggests.
From the TikTok research, the top 25% most active posters were responsible for 98% of all public videos.
The study also found that age wasn’t necessarily a factor in assessing adults’ TikTok posting habits.
Another finding showed that 85% of TikTok users say they find the content on their For You page to be at least somewhat interesting.
This research arrives as a third of U.S. adults say that they use TikTok; among the 18- to 34-year-old demographic, that percentage jumps to 56%.
TikTok’s latest viral superstar is Reesa Teesa, a Georgia woman who posted 50 videos — just under 10 minutes long apiece — chronicling her tumultuous relationship with her ex-husband.
But Reesa’s videos marked the first time that I went for a walk while listening to TikToks, my phone tucked away in my pocket.
“The series, ‘who the f— did I marry,’ is not something that you have to sit down and hold your phone and watch,” Reesa said in a TikTok on Wednesday.
But Reesa is taking advantage of TikTok’s playlist feature, which transitions from one video to the next in order.
When we watch Reesa do mundane things in her TikTok “audiobook,” she subtly signals to us that no matter how bad things got with her ex-husband, she’s still standing.
