He is in his early 70s.

That's the thing.

These things were built

with limits on how quickly you can get out.

So now it's just this kind of angsty waiting game.

Inside Meta’s Big AI Pivot

A memo went out on Tuesday from a researcher who works on building the models.

And so therefore, we are now going to be monitoring your keystrokes, your mouse movements, and your click locations, feed that data to our AI models to help them understand basically how to use a computer.
