Desperately trying to find a use-case for their inferior AI. I feel like their idea pool was always at absolute 0 but now it's going even below that.

Let's have MetaAI raise our kids everyone!

My daughter and I love going to the library and picking out books to read before bed. I can't imagine trying to replace that with a soulless LLM.

But think of all the time you’ll save!

Instead of spending useless time bonding over the shared experience of going to the library - a publicly funded entity that is the only place in current society where you can just exist without buying things - and then the tedious time spent talking about and choosing books together, you can now have an AI care for everything. You can even use their AI to voice the story for you to remove the need to interact with your child at all!
