    1. I have yet to meet a single person who actually uses, let alone prefers, Meta’s AI to chatgpt / gemini / claude

    2. lol to me meta going for ai is as jarring as their metaverse Capex.

      What a moronic venture for an advertising platform.

      Just invest monies in secondary market, and venture cap a small portion for playing with.

      If one has ownership control is there no longer fiduciary duty to not piss away money?

    3. Anthropic Mythos just pulled into the lead and Zuck is still trying to catch Google, OpenAi lol

      Tim Cook and Apple are so fucking smart. Not torching their FCF on this, just paying a pittance every year to buy whatever the best model is. Inference will be done locally by users on their own devices. Absolutely brilliant.

      Everyone thinks Meta sucks balls, the gig is up. Sucky company with sucky practices. Just a manipulation machine that’s going to be banned in every country across the world within the next few years.

    6. Meta has to be the worse possible name for any company. I know it likely comes from metadata but still, its stupid.
