🧠 Meta’s risky AI strategy shift after Llama 4 flops

Meta tried copying a Chinese AI model to beat OpenAI. Instead, it flopped, and now Zuckerberg’s spending billions to fix it.
🚨 Breaking News:
Meta’s AI model Llama 4 bombed with developers, forcing a major strategy shift and a hiring spree of top AI talent.
⚡Wire Simplified
Meta mimicked China’s DeepSeek R1 AI model, bad idea
Llama 4’s new MoE architecture disappointed the developer community
Mark Zuckerberg launched Meta Superintelligence Labs with Scale AI’s CEO leading the charge
Meta hired from OpenAI, Apple, and Google to catch up
Behemoth version of Llama 4 might get scrapped altogether
✔️Straight to the Point:
Meta’s big AI gamble backfired, but Zuckerberg’s doubling down, betting top talent and big money can help it catch up fast.
🔥 Do you think Meta can catch up to OpenAI and Anthropic? |

Microsoft just gave its Edge browser a glow-up. Meet Copilot Mode, your AI assistant for researching, reading, and maybe booking stuff.
🚨 Breaking News:
Microsoft Edge now includes “Copilot Mode,” an experimental AI tool that helps you research, plan, and act directly from your browser.
⚡Wire Simplified
Copilot helps you ask questions, make shopping lists, and even book flights
It reads tabs (only with permission) to assist better
You can use voice commands too, perfect for accessibility
Microsoft says Copilot will get smarter with more context later
The feature is free (for now) and opt-in during testing
✔️Straight to the Point:
Edge isn’t just a browser now, it’s an AI sidekick. Handy for newbies, but might annoy power users who prefer control.

Apple if it had real competition could be 100x better
Eg if I’m on a phone call with someone I’m sharing location with, it should automatically share that location and make it trivial for us to find each other
So simple, yet totally impossible with big tech bureaucracy
