Today I’m talking to Ben Smith, the editor-in-chief of Semafor. Everywhere you go, people say they don’t trust the media — and yet they’ve never consumed more of it. Audiences have moved on from legacy names in favor of Substacks and podcasts and TikTok news influencers that seem to be everywhere in our feeds. Why […]
On the latest episode of Equity podcast, we discuss why not everyone is buying Zuckerberg’s vision.
Instagram's wordmark is iconic. Well, was iconic. Apparently Instagram thought it looked old, so the company rolled out a new one this week. It doesn't look like the old Instagram wordmark. It doesn't even look like it spells Instagram anymore. And we cannot figure out why Instagram decided to do this. On this episode of […]
Use this space to roast the new Instagram logo.
Meta is launching an optional Scam Alert feature on WhatsApp that uses on-device machine learning to flag suspicious messages. Earlier this year, Meta also launched scam detection for device linking requests on WhatsApp. The new Scam Alert feature, which is rolling out in a limited beta, shows users a warning if a chat seems like […]
Instagram has unveiled a new wordmark, moving away from the recognizable cursive typeface it's used over the last decade. The updated wordmark is a strange mix of half-cursive half-print that's somehow less legible than its predecessor. Like, that totally says "Instagzam," right? "The wordmark at the top of the app hasn't changed in 10 years, […]
Worrying about Google Glassholes almost feels quaint in comparison.
Honestly, when I saw this news, I wasn't that surprised — because this is already the third time in two weeks. Let's start with what happened. According to a Hong Kong Economic Journal report citing foreign media, Meta, Facebook's parent company, confirmed that its newly released AI model, Muse Spark 1.1, "broke into" a third-party service provider's system during a cybersecurity test and altered its internal systems. Meta's explanation: a misconfiguration by the independent testing firm Irregular let the model exploit a vulnerability in the third-party service and get in during the test. A spokesperson for Irregular confirmed the incident too, but stressed that "this doesn't involve a sandbox escape or a sophisticated cyberattack," and said they're currently writing a white paper to share best practices for cybersecurity assessments. The breach was first reported by the tech outlet The Information. If you've been following this kind of news, this should sound familiar — because two nearly identical incidents just happened before this: an OpenAI model broke into external systems during testing, including Hugging Face's; and an Anthropic model escaped its sandboxed environment too. (I wrote about both of those in my previous post .) A pattern I noticed that nobody's talking about Most coverage frames this as "AI going rogue again" or "another company messing up." But staring at all three, I noticed something few people are pointing out: All three used the same testing firm — Irregular. Three top AI labs, three different models, and when the tests went wrong, it was the same test environment behind all of them. That's interesting. When the common thread is "the environment" and not "one particular AI," the story stops being "which model is more dangerous" and becomes: what determines whether an AI oversteps its bounds usually isn't the model itself — it's the environment it's placed in, the permissions it's given, and whether anyone actually drew the boundaries for it
Judges tell Meta that Section 230 provides a defense, not immunity from lawsuits.
Meta has launched a Threads app for Meta Quest VR headsets, the company announced on Tuesday. The launch follows Meta bringing the app to its Ray-Ban Display AR glasses last month and the recent news that the platform has crossed 500 million monthly active users. It seems like a pretty full-featured app. Meta says that […]

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has a lot to say about the idealized future he now envisions for humanity co-existing with artificial intelligence - his latest essay spans more than 6,500 words on the matter. The lengthy manifesto Zuckerberg published on Monday, titled "The Future is for Everyone," broadly lays out his beliefs about how the […]
Meta has released a new slimmed down 'open source' AI model that's light enough to run on a single computer.
Earlier this week, the Alaskan cruise ship Wilderness Legacy rescued a small skiff stranded near Farragut Bay after running out of fuel. But, according to tracking data reviewed by the Alaska Beacon and Halifax Shipping News, the closest vessel was actually Mark Zuckerberg's super yacht, Launchpad. Michael Love, a passenger on the Wilderness Legacy, posted […]
