Meta retools Pocket into an AI gizmo social feed, not a read-it-later app
TL;DR
The Verge reports Meta has launched a new Pocket app that isn’t a read-it-later tool but a social feed of interactive AI-generated 'gizmos.' The gizmos are built from an AI prompt and can respond to touch, tilt, play sounds, use the camera or photos, and even be remixable by others. The project appears linked to Gizmo by Atma Sciences, with Meta holding a non-exclusive license to that tech. Screenshots on Google Play show gizmos in action, but US availability is unclear and the app isn’t widely released yet.
