  I like how Meta, in their promotional materials, is focusing on artistic, fun, and creative use of imagine gen AI instead of trying to showcase crating realistic pictures depicting people.  This is a much broader and less risky use case that non-tech people will instantly relate …

• @joannastern Joanna Stern on x

  Very into these AI generated stickers coming to Meta's messaging apps. AI image making has felt so siloed into dedicated apps.

• @johnowhitaker Jonathan Whitaker on x

  Aka fine-tune on the good stuff. A few k amazing images makes a huge difference! I speak from experience :) might have to make a video about this. @dome_271 do you have W2 weights from before vs after fine-tuning on an aesthetic subset? I volunteer to do an SD version.

  In addition to all of the new product announcements at #MetaConnect2023, you heard about some of the research and AI models that helps bring these new features to life. Here's a look at some of the work you should know about + the research papers where you can learn more ⬇️

  We just announced a bunch of new AI experiences that will live across our apps and devices - the new Meta AI assistant, 28 new AI characters to chat with, image and sticker generation, a platform for building your own AIs, and a lot more. I asked our new image generation model,..…

  I'm getting “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” vibes between Microsoft and Meta lately. All the collaborations and integrations between the two companies are making Google feel less and less relevant by the moment. (But I'll never underestimate Google)

• @greglinden Greg Linden on x

  I think one of the bigger but more subtle concerns with this is that these models often memorize content and can surface it again. If private emails or images can be shown to other people, even slightly modified, that's quite a risk for these companies in launching this quickly.

  Me and my friends at Meta are so excited to introduce you to an iconic new AI named Amber, your detective partner for solving crime.  🕵🏼✨ You can chat with Amber across Instagram, Messenger and WhatsApp, just DM @AmberTheDetective to get started.  Meta AIs rolling out to US users…

  all of these AI tools coming to Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook are gonna accelerate usage of this stuff like crazy

  @Meta Many people ask me whether LLMs will make web search engines less valuable, but the opposite is actually the case. LLMs make web search more critical than ever, since the combination of LLMs + web search is what produces fresher and more accurate chat results.

• @rihardjarc Rihard Jarc on x

  In general it doesn't matter how good your LLM model is if it is good enough for people's everyday questions and needs. You don't need a chess master as an AI chatbot. The real money will be made with average people everyday use cases assisted by AI.

  @DMattin Makes sense. If they can pull this off, there's potential to do cameo at scale.

  Are people so desperate to talk to celebrities that they'd talk to AI versions of them? Meta's new AI chatbots have @MrBeast, @TomBrady, @ParisHilton, @KylieJenner, and more. [image]

• @jordirib1 Jordi Ribas on x

  I'm excited to share that @Meta is integrating Bing web search into the Meta AIs available within WhatsApp, Messenger and Instagram. If a request requires fresh information, Meta AI will automatically ask Bing to get the chat answer.

• @ingridlunden Ingrid on x

  It was hard to tell what this was in the demo but Meta confirms they are full-on AIs w/ audio coming next year. It's mum on what celebs are being paid, but I'm guessing revenue shares, advertising opps, and the promise of more ‘authentic engagement’ to help scale their brands.

  One interesting thing to note, Mark's speech also emphasized building responsibly. That echoes what we heard from Google last week “Bold and responsible.” Whether or not that's actually being implemented, it's clear that “build fast; break things” is no longer a bragging point [i…

  $META about to dominate the AI chatbot market. Why? DISTRIBUTION to 3.5B people!

• @issielapowsky Issie Lapowsky on x

  These celebrity embodiments of Meta AI assistants is...so deeply confusing to me. Do they just look at your quizzically as you have a conversation with a chatbot? Or what am I missing?

• @kantrowitz Alex Kantrowitz on x

  Zuck's opening speech at Connect was the most convincing argument for the metaverse he's made to date, likely because it started with augmented reality vs. virtual reality

  I think the use case of the specialized AI is reaching a broad audience that will experiment with the characters thereby further training the models.
