Amazing for motivation: “Everyone is unhappy; the only people who are not unhappy are, literally, executives,” an Instagram employee told WIRED”

That is just where we want Meta ;)

I'd care slightly more if they didn't all work for Meta.

in 10 years, nobody will use instagram because every post will be AI generated. or rather, you won't be able to tell whether it's AI generated.

[-] Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

And there will only be bots looking at it.

Isn’t this the dead internet theory

[-] MyVeryRealName@lemmy.world -4 points 5 hours ago

So what if it's AI generated?

Firing people while you're making record profits. Doesn't get more American than that

[-] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 18 points 22 hours ago

We should import some French culture

[-] gandalf_der_12te@feddit.org 2 points 5 hours ago

the french revolution immediately turned into a terror regime and after that, the napoleonic wars.

[-] barnacul@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Well they did figure shit out eventually

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 4 points 5 hours ago

Still an improvement

I hear the Americans are importing a lot of South Afrucan culture tgese days

Don't conflate those racist pieces of shit with real South Africans and their culture.

Hey investors: Think how much money Facebook could save by firing the CEO that decided to rename the whole company after a failed product.

[-] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 12 points 20 hours ago

He renamed Facebook to meta because the leak of Facebook data to Cambridge Analytica and revelations by whistle blower Frances Haugen damaged the Facebook brand.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 5 points 5 hours ago

Fortunately it worked very well for him and we all have a very positive view of meta.

[-] Jjoiq@lemmy.world 10 points 21 hours ago

Stop using FaceBook. Problem solved.

[-] Zannsolo@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

And whatsapp and Instagram

[-] Gamechanger@slrpnk.net 15 points 23 hours ago

They are just AI washing, they got problems and I love it!

[-] XLE@piefed.social 10 points 22 hours ago

The final stage of enshittification in motion.

The thing is, Meta are making more money than ever. Will this continue? At what point will things become unsustainable so that the house of cards collapses?

[-] bigbangdangler@reddthat.com 4 points 20 hours ago

We could be beyond it. What hasn't happened quite yet are things like failing currencies, but it's entirely possible we are beyond the point of no return. Once the giant ring of investments catches up with itself, the snake eats its own tail, the bottom drops out, and the greatest economic crash the world has ever seen stampedes unfettered through the lives of every person on the planet.

"Are making more money than ever" is a administrative subjective term. Your checks are as balanced as your willing to show in your books.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago

What’s “Meta”? Is that like a clothing brand or something?

[-] CombatWombat@feddit.online 10 points 1 day ago

I am certain they had no other choice

Well, Zuckerberg was so successful with his pivot to the metaverse so why not?

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 1 points 5 hours ago

The amazing thing about that is that it wasn't even a particularly bad idea, it was just implemented badly.

[-] Soulphite@reddthat.com 3 points 1 day ago

Gosh darn the luck!

[-] db2@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

How terrible. A crying shame. Anyway..
