July 13, 2023: Meta plans to launch a commercial version of its AI model, enabling businesses to develop a custom software on top of it. Its software, which is powered by large language models (LLMs), can create texts, images and codes. According to Meta, its LLMs is "open-source", which means that data and code used to create it can be accessed by the public. According to the people familiar with the matter, the release of the commercial version is imminent. “The competitive landscape of AI is going to completely change in the coming months, in the coming weeks maybe, when there will be open source platforms that are actually as good as the ones that are not,” Meta vice-president and chief AI scientist, Yann LeCun recently said.

July 3, 2023: Meta plans to allow EU users to directly download apps through Facebook ads. The new scheme is set to start as a pilot with a handful of android developers before the end of this year. This new move is courtesy of a new EU regulation called the Digital Markets Act (DMA), that will come into effect in the next spring. The regulation considers Apple and Google as "gatekeepers" and are required to open up their mobile platforms to new methods of downloading apps. According to the Verge, Meta spokesperson, Tom Channick, confirmed the plan in an email statement that said, “We’ve always been interested in helping developers distribute their apps, and new options would add more competition in this space. Developers deserve more ways to easily get their apps to the people that want them.”<ref>https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/29/23778928/meta-eu-facebook-plans-app-install-android-ads</ref> | July 3, 2023: Meta plans to allow EU users to directly download apps through Facebook ads.
