Meta’s new AI website brings a social twist to interacting with artificial intelligence. Unlike the typically private experience of using AI chatbots, this platform allows users to share their AI-generated results with just a couple of clicks.
This shared space offers a glimpse into how people are experimenting with generative AI. It seems many are still figuring out what to ask or create with these powerful tools.
Interestingly, Meta’s VP of product, Connor Hayes, told The Verge that the social feature was designed to show AI novices what’s possible. However, the current feed presents an interesting contrast to this goal.
If you scroll through the site, you’ll find a collection of posts resembling Pinterest cards. Most are experiments with AI image generation, alongside some basic questions and a few attempts to test the AI’s limits, like asking tricky counting questions.
Users browsing the feed might notice that it tends to refresh and show the same posts repeatedly, a quirk reminiscent of the early days of Meta’s Threads platform.
