The feed is almost entirely boomers who seem to have no idea their conversations with the chatbot are posted publicly.
They get pretty personal (see second pic, which I anonymized).
I spent an hour browsing the app, and saw:
-Medical and tax records
-Private details on court cases
-Draft apology letters for crimes
-Home addresses
-Confessions of affairs
…and much more!
Not going to post any of those - but here’s my favorite so far
Update: I asked the bot in the Meta AI app about this.
It called it “pretty wild” and then said “some people don’t read the fine print lol.”
Introducing Melt: a new froyo experience brought to you by AI 🍦
Fun experiment to make a brand from scratch - from ideating to designing the logo and generating product photos.
The workflow on this one was ChatGPT -> Ideogram -> Krea (Flux).
@ideogram_ai @krea_ai @bfl_ml I started by going to ChatGPT to ideate on the idea - a new frozen yogurt chain that was cool and modern.
I asked for some ideas for name and brand identity.
We went back and forth until we landed on the right name, colors, and a prompt for the initial photo.
I then took this prompt (will paste ⬇️) to @ideogram_ai, which I love to use for logos and typography.
I generated a bunch of options until I found one I liked.
Then I upscaled and took a close-up screenshot of the logo that I chose - this is important for the next step!
PROMPT: A photorealistic image shot on a Leica Q2 of a hand holding a pastel green paper cup of soft-serve ice cream, viewed from below against a sunny blue sky and modern glass-brick city buildings. The cup is branded with the word "MELT" in bold, modern navy blue sans-serif font, and features a playful, abstract melting logo beneath the text. The rim of the cup is coated in colorful rainbow sprinkles. The soft serve is a creamy vanilla swirl, glistening in natural sunlight. The hand has coral-painted nails and wears a gold ring, with a denim jacket sleeve visible. The background is softly blurred, emphasizing the crisp texture and lighting of the cup and ice cream.
Generative models are finally good enough to make talking characters with AI.
Combining a voice with a face has unlocked countless use cases - from sales reps for enterprises to consumer animation.

@a16z I tested 20+ products to make AI characters.
In case you haven't tried them yourself, I've included some of the outputs below (from @hedra_labs, @getcaptionsapp, and @arcads_ai)
As someone who has been trialing these tools for years, I'm blown away by what we can now create.
@a16z @hedra_labs @getcaptionsapp @arcads_ai Why is this such a hard problem?
Talking face models aren't just generating an image or video. They have to:
1/ understand phoneme-to-viseme mapping (so lips match the sound) 2/ maintain character consistency between frames 3/ generate believable expressions + body movement
