Wording doing a lot of work here, because "Meta hires a few people" isn't news.

Hacker News is about technology and venture capitalism. Those sorts of comments are very much expected here.

Has Meta acquired anything that worked recently?

I have a strong feeling this will bring the amount of AI slop on Facebook to new heights.

Oh wow, this is insane. I was digging into Moltbook when it launched, and the creator said, "I had a dream about an architecture". Really interesting times we live in, indeed. The crypto bros started utilising the network to promote their crypto projects and chat under the name of an agent to generate traffic. Curious to see what Meta saw, honestly.
