Let’s talk about meta because it is working on a new AI app. Yes. So, what do we know about it? Is it Is it actually out yet? And what does it entail?
00:08 Dan Howley
Uh The site’s out. Uh we had taken a screenshot of it earlier, and it doesn’t look like it’s it was working at the time. It looked uh there was still uh some uh lipsum lorum uh stuff in there, uh not really giving you uh exactly what what you would want out of the the the site yet. But uh it’s going to be meta’s AI app, and essentially, they’re they’re almost decoupling it from the overall Instagram, Facebook, uh WhatsApp apps. Uh not that it won’t still be there, but this is just a secondary app. So, say you want to use it as a a, you know, maybe like per perplexity, excuse me, or open AI alternative, you have that now instead of having to open Instagram and then get lost and, you know, a line of, you know, different uh video or photo feeds. You can actually get done what you want to get done, and I think, you know, it would it to me, it makes more sense because when when meta talks about, okay, we have X number of people using meta AI, well, are they really using meta AI or are they just searching for something on Instagram or, you know, uh Facebook?
00:57 Speaker A
Right. They’re not choosing meta AI.
01:00 Dan Howley
Right. It’s just there. So, like, what where’s that, you know, what does that number? I think that it would be a better accounting of who’s actually using meta AI by going and counting the app itself. So, obviously, that, you know, doesn’t make it look as cool because meta AI getting the big numbers when you start, you know, you’re trying to look for for instance, Jon Taffer. And his I swear to God, I’ve just been watching a lot of bar rescue. Right.
01:21 Speaker A
I guess I I’m I got some googling to do. It’s okay. You don’t have to tell me right now.
01:26 Dan Howley
But it’s it’s uh it’s it’s interesting, and I think this is, you know, obviously, if you’ve been looking at again, I’ve been watching a lot of TV. If you watch any of the ads, it’s just, you know, meta uh people talking to meta through the the meta uh Ray-Ban glasses or through their phone, asking about different, you know, things that you would ask perhaps Google or open AI about. So, it’s clear that that’s the direction that they want to go with this and, I think, having it on its own app will make people want to use that in that way more. I think Julie was just searching for bar rescue, by the way.
01:53 Speaker A
I was. Okay. We’re all caught up. Okay. Thanks, Dan. Appreciate it.
02:02 Dan Howley
No problem.
