IG founders create news app

Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger developed a news app powered by artificial intelligence

Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger, the founders of Instagram, created Artifact, a personalized news app that uses artificial intelligence (AI) technology to deliver this information.

Systrom and Krieger left Facebook at the end of September 2018, with the goal of “re-exploring” their “creativity and curiosity” as well as “building new things” and finding out what would inspire them to “combine it with what the world needs.” “, as the first pointed out in a statement.

The founders of Instagram are now back with Artifact, a platform that presents itself as a personalized news feed and uses machine learning technology to learn and understand the interests of users.

The operation of this application, available for both iOS and Android devices, is similar to TiktTok, although instead of videos it introduces text and offers users a series of articles of interest, based on user activity recorded while using it.

Those who sign up for the waitlist for this service will initially see a single feed, while the beta version for testers already has two more personalized features.
