Meta continues to shift its focus from the metaverse to artificial intelligence. The Facebook parent on Wednesday released a new AI model called "Segment Anything" that can identify and isolate individual objects within an image, such as a fish in an aquarium.
The tool could be useful not just in photo editing and content creation, Meta says, but in fields as diverse as augmented reality and Earth studies. Meanwhile, Meta plans to unveil AI-powered tools later this year that will help companies create ads, Chief Technology Officer Andrew Bosworth tells Nikkei Asia.
