META AI

📱 Meta is putting AI into all the products

🌟 Star-Packed Virtual World

Meta has announced the launch of AI chatbots embodied by celebrities such as Mr. Beast, Snoop Dogg, Kendall Jenner, and Naomi Osaka.

🎮 Gaming with the Dogg!

The chatbots will feature unique interests and personalities, allowing users to receive personalized advice and interactions. For instance, Snoop Dogg will assist users in playing adventure games as "Dungeon Master," and Dwyane Wade will help users work out as "Victor."

🤖 28 Bots of Fame:

Meta is launching over 28 of these celebrity AIs in beta, each with its unique interests and quirks, covering everything from cooking to speech writing. It’s a star-studded interaction spree aimed at the younger crowd, making AI interaction a whole new ball game!

AI COKE

🥤 People disgusted with the flavor of new AI Coke

IT'S "BAD. DON’T DRINK IT.

In a bold move, the soda giant decided to let AI concoct a new flavor, dubbed "Year 3000." Supposedly, it's the taste of the future, and it's here to quench your thirst—or so they say.

All bark and no bite:

However, it seems the future tastes... unpleasant. Gizmodo didn’t mince words, calling it "all bark and no bite," and simply "bad," with the drink lacking the familiar acidic, carbonated sensation of regular Coke.

📢 Marketing Ploys

The ingredients remain a Coca-Cola secret, with the company only revealing it was "co-created" with AI. This might be more of a marketing ploy than a revolutionary new drink.
