If you’re concerned about data privacy on social media, TikTok has come out with some interesting insights in their new TikTok Truths series, which aims to shed light on things like GPS data, biometric information, and more. Here’s a breakdown. There’s definitely some useful information here!

Next, Snapchat is still seriously on the AI train, as evidenced by the launch of SnapFusion, a new model that “shortens the model runtime from text input to image generation on mobile to under two seconds–the fastest time published to date by the academic community.” Here’s an in-depth look at what that looks like.

Additionally, Snapchat’s My AI platform has reached over 150 million users, and they’ve revealed some insights into that use.

Back in February, Instagram announced it was making Broadcast Channels available to certain creators. Now, as the platform moves away from feed posts to more private discussions, the DM engagement option is being expanded to anyone with a Creator account. 

Finally, as more and more platforms develop and use generative AI, Meta has made a significant step and joined Microsoft in signing onto the Partnership in AI Responsible Practices for Synthetic Media initiative, which aims to promote responsible practices in the development and creation of AI tools. Exciting!

That’s all for now.
