So, Meta is kicking rival AI companies out of WhatsApp to protect its own AI assistant. And here I thought competition was healthy—like a crisp salad instead of a soggy sandwich. But apparently, when you’re a tech giant, the best defense is a solid offense—or in Meta’s case, more of a bouncer mentality.
Imagine walking into a club where the DJ plays your favorite tunes, but the bouncer is glaring at anyone who dares to wear a cooler shirt. That’s Meta right now, knee-deep in a turf war over who gets to talk to you through AI. But let’s be real, if your product is good enough, shouldn’t it let its users choose?
In today’s tech scene, monopolistic moves like this raise the eyebrows of those who thought the free market would give us paradise instead of a gated resort. Are we just stacking more reasons against innovation? Or are we looking at a necessary evil to maintain control? Either way, chalk one up for Meta’s ‘protective’ strategy and its possibly delusional confidence.
