Interesting. Terrifying, but interesting. They are obviously working on a reverse of this to force ads into our heads on the street without our permission.

Lol .... I always react the same way with these new announcements. Humanity will always react with greed and fear to these new developments.

I feel the same way about robot technology .... I only see us developing a fully functional robot and then placing a machine gun in its hands.

Why spend the moment to effortlessly come up with a conspiracy theory? Not everything has to be so emotional.

I'm half joking, but not really.

This tech is surely to be used for profit if coming from Meta, not the greater good.

The R&D team at Facebook isn’t doing this out of the kindness of their hearts, they have a mission statement at the start of every project before it gets funded, and it doesn’t get funded unless it is going to produce future revenue.
