Meta runs on UGC (User Generated Content), so making it easy and cheap to make great content is in their best interests. If they can reduce the cost of making a Billboard 100 quality song to $0, or make it so anyone with a 1.3MP webcam can use AI to get MKBHD level quality streams going, they:
- increase the amount of content being generated
- increase the quality of that content
- make the content cheaper to acquire/license (since there's dramatically more supply)
- marcopicentini 3y agoI understand but Code LLama or CoTracker do not create content for Facebook/Instagram. Moreover, AI-generated content is not so engageable as a human-generated content. I don't think the purpose is to have more content at lower price. The theory makes sense, but it's not clear what its complement is?
