Meta's AI Game Maker Pocket Breaks Out of Brazil
Meta is taking Pocket, its experimental AI powered app for whipping up and sharing interactive games, out of testing mode in Brazil and pushing it to users across the US. The app lets anyone prompt their way into a playable mini game, no code required, riding the same wave of AI creation tools turning app users into amateur game devs overnight. It's Meta's latest bet that generative AI plus social sharing equals the next big content loop, following its playbook from Reels to AI stickers.
Meta making games now? Sure, right after it perfects the metaverse it promised us in 2021.
