AI chatbot with all the answers coming to Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram – 9News

If you thought all the hype around ChatGPT over the past 10 months was a lot, then get set for that same level of artificial intelligence and knowledge to become commonplace in some of the world's most used apps – Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram.Meta, the company that owns those apps, held itsannual Connect conference this morning, announcing new products and software to the developer community and wider user group from its headquarters in Palo Alto California.While much of the initial hype around the event focused on the company's "mixed reality" goggles – the new Quest 3 headset was announced with fast improvements to power, performance and usability, including plenty of subtle jabs at Apple's expensive Vision Pro headset which is yet to make it to market – the real guts of today's news centred on artificial intelligence.Meta will launch AI chatbots across Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram.

Sentenced to Death for WhatsApp Lyrics, Petition for Nigerian Musician's Release Brought …

Sentenced to Death for WhatsApp Lyrics, Petition for Nigerian Musician’s Release Brought to UN Working Group GENEVA (25 September 2023) ADF International and international human rights lawyer Kola Alapinni today filed a complaint to the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention advocating for the release of Yahaya Sharif-Aminu—a young Sufi musician sentenced to death and currently imprisoned under the blasphemy law of Kano State in northern Nigeria. Yahaya has been held in prison since his arrest in March of 2020, after which he was convicted and sentenced to death by hanging by a Sharia court. The UN Working Group is a body of independent human rights experts that investigate cases of arbitrary arrest and detention. Yahaya Sharif-Aminu’s case was filed at the Supreme Court of Nigeria in November 2022, and has the potential to overturn the country’s draconian blasphemy law regime. The Supreme Court has yet to announce when the case will be heard. “The UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention’s opinion declaring the continuing prosecution and detention of Yahaya as arbitrary in violation of international law would be of great benefit not only to free Yahaya, but also to highlight the human rights abuses enabled by blasphemy laws in Nigeria,”

National Daughters Day 2023 Wishes: Here Are Some Messages, Facebook/Whatsapp …

(MENAFN- AsiaNet News) National Daughters Day is a unique occasion celebrated with love and affection. This day is marked on the final Sunday of September to honour and appreciate the nation's daughters. It's a time to recognise the important role daughters play in our lives and to express our appreciation for their presence. Without a daughter, a family is incomplete. They fill the house with love, laughter, and happiness and maintain contact with their families even as they embark on a new chapter in their lives by marrying. Significance of National Daughters Day: Daughters nowadays frequently carry several responsibilities at the expense of their physical and emotional health since they are concerned about the well-being of all their loved ones. While girls should be shown love, support, and equal opportunity, this is unfortunately not the situation in our nation, where gender inequality is widespread. Every year, on the fourth Sunday of September, India celebrates National Daughters Day, which reminds people of the lovely gift in their home known as "daughter." National Daughters Day is observed on September 24 this year. The day also acts as a reminder to bring to light numerous concerns concerning females, such as infanticide, dowry, and
