    Wait, who’s paying for the compute here? I don’t have Instagram, but I assume it’s free to use these bots

      Meta is paying for it. Meta is investing a lot of money into these models.

      I don’t know why they are paying for it. Maybe they think more people will use instagram with this, maybe they just want the chat logs to train on, I’m not sure what their end game monetization is.
