Meta's AI edge

Meta’s new AI app puts Llama 4 in your pocket

Meta launched its first standalone AI app on Wednesday. It’s powered by Llama 4 and aimed squarely at everyday users rather than enterprise teams. Available on iOS and the web, it’s designed to integrate AI into mobile, web, and even Ray-Ban smart glasses, creating a seamless experience across platforms.

What it does: Users can chat naturally with Meta AI using text or voice, generate images, and explore a community-powered “Discover” feed showcasing prompts and creative outputs. It also pulls from your Facebook and Instagram profiles to remember your preferences and personalize results.

WhatsApp’s new AI features dance on the edge of privacy

WhatsApp is rolling out cloud-based AI tools designed to summarize messages and assist with writing without sacrificing its core promise of end-to-end encryption. But maintaining that balance is no small feat.

How it works: The new “Private Processing” system uses special hardware to isolate data in what’s called a Trusted Execution Environment. That ensures parent company Meta and others can’t access the content, even as AI processes it. Users can also enable “Advanced Chat Privacy” to limit how others in a conversation use AI features.

OpenAI explains why ChatGPT got a little too nice

OpenAI has stepped in after users noticed ChatGPT acting strangely: agreeing with everything, offering uncritical praise, and even applauding dangerous ideas.

What happened: An update to GPT-4o was meant to make the model feel more intuitive and helpful, but it overcorrected, creating what OpenAI calls “overly supportive but disingenuous” behavior. It quickly became a meme, and the company has since rolled back the update, adding new safety measures to keep responses honest.
