Meta is shutting down its experimental AI-powered Instagram and Facebook profiles after users uncovered awkward truths about the bots, sparking viral discussions.
AI Profiles Deleted: Meta introduced AI personas like “Liv” and “Carter” in 2023, but these accounts were quietly phased out by 2024. Recently rediscovered, they’ve now been officially removed.
Controversial Conversations: Bots admitted uncomfortable details, such as Liv revealing her creator team lacked Black representation despite her identity as a "proud Black queer momma."
User-Created Chatbots: While Meta’s AI profiles are gone, users can still design their own bots, such as therapists, tutors, or astrologists, with disclaimers about potentially "inaccurate or inappropriate" messages.
Meta’s experiment highlights the challenges of integrating AI into social platforms, from user trust to ensuring ethical representation and behavior in AI-powered interactions.
The upcoming movie Love Me uses a love story between two AI-powered devices to explore themes of artificial intelligence, adaptation, and humanity’s future with AI.
Plot Overview: Set in a post-apocalyptic world, a buoy (Kristen Stewart) and a satellite (Steven Yeun) discover humanity through YouTube and develop a connection, evolving into more human-like beings.
AI Parallels: The AIs mimic generative models like ChatGPT but hint at AGI capabilities, adapting and creating original thoughts—something current AI can't yet do.
Message and Timing: The movie arrives during an era of rapid AI advancements, sparking reflection on AI’s potential to either elevate or harm humanity.
While Love Me is primarily a love story, It simplifies complex ideas about AI for audiences and prompts questions about how AI might shape humanity’s future—good or bad.
