‼️🚨 BREAKING: Meta's AI feature let attackers hijack Instagram accounts for days with nothing but a username. It was being A/B tested on a slice of users, and if you were in the test, you couldn't turn it off. Among the casualties: the official Obama White House account. The method: get on a VPN near the target's region, ask the Meta AI support agent to send a verification code to any email you control, relay that code back to the agent, and it hands over a password reset link. Without ID or human review. From there, the account is yours. The flaw lived in the AI's logic layer, which acted on recovery requests with no real identity checks. One researcher compared it to the Roblox AI assistant exploit from days earlier, where you needed a target's billing info. Instagram was easier: the username and a regional VPN were enough and victims reported sessions revoked and passwords changed with no email, text, or push alert at all. By the time it went public, the method was common knowledge in blackhat Telegram circles and had been used to allegedly hijack 100+ high-value accounts. Accounts hit: - obamawhitehouse (the archived official Obama White House account, ~2.4M followers. Hackers posted an AI-generated image captioned "The White House is under Shiites' control," plus cryptic anti-Trump and pro-Iranian Stories. Meta confirmed the hack and scrubbed it. - Premium short handles like hey and jowo, worth over $1M combined, stolen and flipped on Telegram. - albert (owned by Albert Renshaw), whose owner publicly reported being locked out and unable to reach Meta support. Meta has since patched it. There was no public acknowledgment.

📣 New research from GenAI at Meta, introducing Meta 3D Gen: A new system for end-to-end generation of 3D assets from text in <1min. Meta 3D Gen is a new combined AI system that can generate high-quality 3D assets, with both high-resolution textures and material maps end-to-end, producing results that are superior to existing solutions — at 3-10x the speed of existing work in this space. Details in the technical report ➡️

Chief AI Officer at Meta a few months ago broke down the Meta Flywheel for AI. Meta holds an asymmetric advantage over pure-play AI competitors like OpenAI or Anthropic due to its 3.5B daily active users. Launching AI agents to half the global population generates immediate scale and revenue, which justifies massive capex on infrastructure, which in turn trains the next generation of frontier models. $META

Strangers wearing Meta glasses could soon identify you on sight, and the secret code to do it is already hiding on 50 million phones... A WIRED code analysis found a hidden feature called "NameTag" inside the Meta AI app that pairs with its Ray-Ban and Oakley smart glasses. Once activated, it converts every face the glasses see into a biometric faceprint and checks it against a database on the phone, one built to receive updates from Meta's servers. The components have been there since January, even as Meta publicly insisted it was still "thinking through" the idea. Researchers who tested it got back two words: "Person recognized." This is the same technology Meta killed in 2021 after deleting a billion faceprints and paying out over $2 billion in biometric settlements. One security researcher warns Meta has built the capacity to turn its customers into "a distributed surveillance machine." Meta says no final decision has been made. The code suggests they're one switch away. Source: WIRED

BREAKING 🚨: META AI IS PREPARING TO GET NEW AVACADO MODELS, MANUS BROWSER AGENT AND INTEGRATION WITH OPENCLAW! What’s new? - Meta AI website got migrated to the new stack while retaining the same user experience. - New effort selector, email, and calendar connectors are already available to users. - Memory and Projects are in the works. - Avacado and Avacado Thinking models have been spotted in testing. The router still redirects tothe Llama model. - Meta is testing different models from other providers underneath, including Gemini 3 Pro preview, Claude Sonnet 4.5 and GPT-5.2. This part was likely inherited from Manus AI but used only internally. - Scheduled tasks feature is under development. - A new model named Sierra is being tested to power the upcoming browser agent. This likely will be the same agent used in Manus AI currently. - Big Brain mode is in the works, where multiple model responses will be combined into a final answer. - OpenClaw integration has been spotted to let Meta AI connect to your OpenClaw gateway. In short, Meta is on the path to slowly transform into Manus. OpenClaw integration might be big, but something that other Labs may easily adapt as well. We are yet to know if Avacado's performance will surpass recently released models, where Avacado is expected to be released around this spring.

Hi XR devs! Big day today. v83 of the Meta XR SDK is officially out and it includes something very special to me 🦙. For the past 6 months we’ve been building AI Inference Building Blocks, which you may have seen teased at Meta Connect 2025. Our goal: keep the simplicity of Building Blocks while giving you the freedom to plug in any AI provider or model you want to power you apps with AI. More details and a full step-by-step guide are coming soon. And stay tuned as two more iterations are already locked in for early next year with new capabilities and major performance and inference improvements like you've never seen on Meta Quest. 🚀 For now, learn more on the Meta Horizon OS Developer Center:

I’m excited to share what I’ve been working on at Meta. I was tasked with building + designing a reimagined Meta AI embodiment across all our platforms + services. It’s been so much fun working on delivering craft as best as I know it for Meta. I used Metal shaders in iOS, OpenGL in Android, and WebGL for web to build this centralized new embodiment. The new ring is now rolling out across Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger on iOS, Android, and on Meta AI web.

Sam Altman says Meta is offering $100M signing bonuses to OpenAI staff. Not $100M annual compensation, just the signing bonus! He clowned Meta: “that’s not how you build a great culture.” Also said none of OpenAI’s best people are leaving. This AI talent war is crazy.

Dana White says the average salary for Meta AI employees is $65,000,000 “So Meta AI. I'm on the board for Meta. Zuckerberg who is a brilliant fucking gangster. These people who try to talk shit about him and everything else, I'm so blown away and impressed by this guy. He's an animal and putting all the chips in on AI” “We just hired 10 kids that are aged 22 to 28. The average salary is like $65 million that these kids are making that are coming in working on AI. You hear a lot of negativity about AI. There's way more positives about AI than negative”

Ansem explains why people are so drawn to memecoins “One of the reasons dogecoin:native went so high is because you have this set of buyers who were never going to buy stocks. They didn't care about stocks at all and didn't have any money invested in the stock market” “They invested in Dogecoin because they related to the meme. They thought the meme was funny. It was fun to invest with their friends. Elon's attached to it. It was something they could understand easily and relate to” “I think it's discounted a lot how large that group of people is that will invest in whatever meme but won't invest in stocks” “If you look at Instagram, it has like 3B users but the holders of $META are only like 30M. There's only around 30M people that own Meta stock” “The reason Meta has value is because all the people on Instagram are spending a ton of time on that app, contributing a lot of value to the network by using their time and attention” “The people who are determining the value of this network typically don't have a stake in the upside” “If you can figure out a way to flip the social media model on its head where the people who are the reason the network has value also have upside in the value of the network, there's a complete regime change in how all these things operate” “I think one of the ways to do that is through memes” solana:9cRCn9rGT8V2imeM2BaKs13yhMEais3ruM3rPvTGpump

2013. Obama says that Republicans are threatening to shut down the government in an effort to stop Obamacare. How ironic. Democrats are now claiming they have shut down the government because healthcare is unaffordable. Obama also claimed that he fixed the broken healthcare system and that going forward, families would be able to get insurance for the price of cable.
