Meta seems to be trying something bigger than launching another #AI product.
It is trying to make both AI and the people building it feel more human.
You can see it with Alexandr Wang. Zuck brought him in and quickly made him one of the main faces of Meta’s AI push.
He shows up in a $30 deer shirt and Crocs, posts memes, jokes around online, and generally feels much looser than the usual big tech executive.
The idea #Muse is basically an AI manager for your life that knows you well enough to understand what you want, help turn ideas into plans, keep you moving, and eventually do a lot of the work for you.
#Meta is in a pretty unique position to try this. Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp have billions of users. They have spent decades learning what people like, share, watch and actually use.
Facebook, Meta, the metaverse, Quest, smart glasses, now AI. People have made fun of almost every new chapter, while Meta keeps building, printing money from ads, and trying to find the next massive platform.
Whether people actually buy into this more human version of Meta is another question. You can have all the data in the world, but culture still moves in weird ways, and people decide for themselves what feels cool, real, or forced. #azatell #technews
