Meanwhile, we’ve got new tools that write your emails, summarize your podcasts, and build robotic arms for under $100. Plus, we’re giving you a peek at what’s cooking inside Syllaby and why AI Marketing World is where the real operators are headed.

📰 Breaking News: Meta Just Launched a ChatGPT Killer?
Meta isn’t playing around anymore.
At their first-ever LlamaCon (yes, that’s a real name), Meta dropped a brand-new standalone AI app—and it’s clearly aimed at taking on ChatGPT and Gemini head-on.
Here’s what’s wild about it:
-It’s powered by Llama 4, Meta’s newest large language model
-It pulls context from your Facebook and Instagram activity (yep, your social life is now part of the convo)
-There’s a “Discover” feed so you can see and share how others are using AI—think social + AI in one app
Right now, it’s live in the U.S., Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. But make no mistake—Meta’s betting big on social-native AI, and this is just the start.

What We’re Building Next (and Why You’ll Love It)
We’ve got a few updates in the works—here’s what we’re building right now at Syllaby:

✅ Save Your Favorite Topics: Soon you’ll be able to star AI-suggested topics and save them for later. Simple, useful, and no more hunting through the list.
✅ NSFW Filter: A smart safety filter is coming to help catch any inappropriate image outputs before they show up.
✅ Delete Your Profile: You’ll have the option to fully delete your profile right from the app—no extra steps.
We’re building all this based on your feedback. More updates coming soon. Thanks for being part of it.
