Instagram head Adam Mosseri stated in an interview on Lenny Rachitsky's podcast that the platform should not ban AI-generated content but should clearly label it for users. He argued that individuals who dislike AI content should have the ability to exclude it from their feeds, while enthusiasts should be able to curate feeds filled exclusively with it. Mosseri drew a clear distinction between platform-wide removal of AI content and giving users personal control over what they see.

Xreal A01 Plus AR Glasses Offer Lighter Build and Bright Display at $299

Xreal has launched the A01 Plus, a budget-friendly AR glasses model priced at $299, significantly cheaper than its $449 predecessor, the 1S.

The glasses are described as comfortable and visually appealing, retaining several of the 1S's standout qualities. However, concerns about durability were raised during hands-on testing, particularly when adjusting the temple arms.
