Facebook rolls out an AI companion app for creators
Facebook has announced a major overhaul of its Creator Studio tool, transforming it into a standalone AI companion app built specifically to help creators grow their presence on the platform. The move is part of Meta's broader push to keep creators engaged on Facebook as competition heats up from rivals like TikTok and YouTube.
The app also aims to reduce creators' reliance on third-party tools such as ChatGPT for tasks like brainstorming content ideas or analyzing performance metrics. By bringing these capabilities in-house, Meta hopes to make Facebook a one-stop shop for everything a creator needs.
Currently being tested with a select group of creators, the new app comes with Facebook's recently launched AI creator assistant built right in. The assistant delivers personalized recommendations tailored to each creator's content style, audience engagement, performance history, and goals.
One of its standout features is the ability to answer everyday questions conversationally. Instead of digging through charts and dashboards, creators can simply ask things like "When is the best time to post?" or "What are people saying in my comments?" The assistant also supports follow-up questions, making it easy to dig deeper — for example, asking how an audience demographic has shifted over recent months.
Beyond the AI assistant, the app includes several new tools designed to simplify a creator's daily workflow. A new AI-powered comment tool helps surface the most relevant comments and automatically drafts replies that match the creator's personal tone. Creators can review, edit, and approve these replies before anything goes live.
When creators open the app each day, they're greeted with a feed of daily priorities. This includes reviewing the performance of their most recent post, tracking progress toward set goals, and flagging comments that need a response. The idea is to give creators a clear, actionable starting point every time they log in.
The Creator Studio app announcement is just the latest in a string of new product launches from Meta. Last month, the company introduced Forum, a standalone app for Facebook Groups that operates similarly to Reddit. In April, Meta launched Instants, an app that allows Instagram users to share disappearing photos with friends.
More launches appear to be on the way. The New York Times recently reported that Meta is developing a prediction markets app, internally referred to as "Arena," modeled after platforms like Polymarket. The app has not yet been released to the public.
This rapid pace of product development is no accident. The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this year that CEO Mark Zuckerberg told employees that AI-driven efficiencies would allow the company to ship more apps than it ever has before. With that vision clearly in motion, Facebook's new AI companion app for creators looks like just one piece of a much larger puzzle.
Claude is not just a chatbot anymore. Is your security team ready?
Claude.ai is one thing. Claude Cowork with MCP connections, running agentic workflows, taking actions across your data with ungoverned skills? That is a different conversation entirely, and most security teams are not equipped to govern it.
Harmonic Security is built to secure everything Claude offers. Full browser controls for Claude.ai, deep governance over agentic MCP workflows, and real-time visibility into what Claude is doing across your organization. So your CISO can say yes to the tools your business is already demanding.
Which of these would help your business the most right now?
Figma's biggest update brings code layers, animations, and smarter AI tools.
Figma adds code layers, support for animations, more AI features in new update
Figma has rolled out a major update introducing code layers directly on its collaborative canvas, allowing teams to clone repositories and extract flows from code into design layers for faster iteration.
The platform now natively supports animations, transitions, and 3D transforms, eliminating the need for third-party tools. AI-powered shader effects and fills are also included.
Additionally, Figma is expanding its AI assistant with custom, prompt-built plug-ins and connectors for tools like Notion, GitHub, and Excel, while deeper integration with acquired workflow tool Weavy is coming later this year.

⚡ Trends for the Future
OpenAI unveils its first custom chip, built by Broadcom
OpenAI debuts its first custom inference chip, Jalapeño, built with Broadcom.
OpenAI has officially unveiled its first custom-built inference processor, developed in collaboration with Broadcom. Named Jalapeño, the chip was designed specifically to meet the demands of OpenAI's inference systems, with the company's own AI models playing a role in the development process. While still in testing, early results suggest it delivers significantly better performance-per-watt than current state-of-the-art alternatives.
The Broadcom partnership was first announced in October, though rumors of OpenAI's chip ambitions had been circulating for some time. The motivation is straightforward: reduce the company's heavy reliance on Nvidia GPUs. OpenAI follows in the footsteps of Google and Amazon, both of which have developed their own custom AI accelerators — chips purpose-built to speed up machine learning workloads.
OpenAI president Greg Brockman shed light on the company's chip strategy shortly after the partnership was announced. "We have a deep understanding of the workload," Brockman explained. "We've really been looking for specific workloads that are underserved, and asking how can we build something that will be able to accelerate what's possible?"
Jalapeño is focused exclusively on inference — the process of running pre-trained AI models in real time in response to user input. OpenAI highlighted the chip's low operating cost when handling real-time coding tasks. More demanding workloads like pre-training will likely continue to depend on Nvidia hardware, but even modest reductions in inference costs could meaningfully improve OpenAI's financial outlook.
The launch reflects OpenAI's broader ambition to control every layer of its technology stack. From frontier models and consumer products to data centers and now custom silicon, the company is positioning itself to optimize at every level. As OpenAI put it in its announcement: each layer of the stack can be tuned around a single shared goal — making its models faster, more reliable, and more affordable for users.
