Zuckerberg's comments come after reports that Meta's negotiations with Apple to integrate its AIs into operating systems were unsuccessful. He suggested that Meta's alternative plan is to develop technology that extends beyond smartphones. He also discussed the potential of neural interfaces, suggesting that people might eventually wear a wristband that picks up signals from the brain. However, he cautioned that such advancements would not immediately replace smartphones, but would likely change how they are used.
Key takeaways:
- Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg believes that the future of AI will not be dominated by a single AI, but rather a variety of AIs reflecting different interests.
- Zuckerberg criticized unnamed competitors for their less open approach to AI, suggesting they are trying to create a 'one true AI' which he finds unrealistic.
- Meta announced early tests of its AI Studio software in the U.S., which will allow creators to build AI avatars that can interact with people through Instagram’s messaging system.
- Zuckerberg also discussed the company's progress with the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses and future plans for neural interfaces, suggesting that these technologies will not replace smartphones, but change how they are used.
