Posted: Thu Apr 04, 2024 11:57 pm
Hey,
Big news in tech! Yahoo just acquired Artifact, a news app started by co-founders of Instagram.
So, what's the deal? Yahoo wants to make their news better by using Artifact's tech. That means you might start seeing news that's more up your alley based on what you usually read. Artifact itself is closing shop, but Yahoo's taking their smart system to spruce up their own news.
This move shows how tough it is for small news startups nowadays. It's hard to compete with the big dogs like Google and Facebook for ad money. Artifact figured it wasn't worth the struggle without more cash, so Yahoo stepped in to snag their tech.
Here's a neat fact:
The folks who started Artifact used to work at Instagram before doing their own thing. They'll be lending a hand to Yahoo for a while as they switch things over.
Exciting times ahead as Yahoo gives their news a boost with Artifact's smarts. Keep an eye out for more updates!
Let me know if you need anything else tweaked!
