Meta revolutionizes digital avatars: New AI model Meta Motivo” presented!

In a dramatic double-happening, Meta, the parent company of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, has not only announced the launch of its latest AI model but is also facing significant disruptions in its core applications. On December 13, 2024, the company announced the innovative AI model “Meta Motivo,” which aims to address issues such as body control in digital avatars, thereby enabling more realistic execution of human movements. According to Meta, the company has already invested billions in AI and augmented reality, with spending expected to rise to record highs of $37 billion to $40 billion by 2024 exxpress.at reported.

However, on that day, many users in the US experienced a frustrating experience as Facebook, Instagram, Threads and WhatsApp were unavailable to thousands of people. In total, over 90,000 incident reports were recorded for Facebook and around 65,000 for Instagram, with Meta informing users of a technical problem in an official notification. The company assured that it was working on a quick solution and apologized for the inconvenience. Despite these disruptions, Meta shares rose by 1.92%, indicating some market resilience for the company, as benzinga.com reported.
