Facebook is building an artificial intelligence assistant called TLDR that will summarize news articles into bullets, so a user won’t have to read an entire story, Buzzfeed News reported Tuesday. The tool, named for the internet acronym “too long, unread,” would also provide full article audio narration and a voice assistant to answer questions about a story, according to the report.

The social media giant has faced criticism for your role in spreading misinformation about the coronavirus pandemic, the 2020 U.S. presidential election and the Black Lives Matter movement. Also faces multiple antitrust lawsuits about your domain on social media.

The TLDR news was met with skepticism by some members of the media. On twitter.

News of the tool and other potential products and features for the future came at a company-wide year-end meeting led by CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Tuesday, Buzzfeed News reported. Facebook executives also told employees that the company is working on a neural sensor that detects people’s thoughts and translates them into action, as well as a new virtual reality social network called Horizon.

Facebook did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
