Earlier this week, Mark Zuckerberg published a memo outlining his vision to build AI "superintelligence." Citing "safety concerns," he wrote that Meta would need to be "rigorous" about what it open sources and what it doesn't. The line stood out, as Zuckerberg has made open source pretty central to Meta's approach to AI.
In fact, his comments differ from what he wrote almost exactly a year ago in a different memo titled "Open Source AI is the Path Forward." In that, he said that open source is crucial for both Meta and developers.
The new memo is pretty meandering, and Zuckerberg followed up with comments on Meta’s Q2 earnings call, saying that nothing had particularly changed. He said the company had always “open-sourced some of our models and not open-sourced everything that we've done.”
This Friday, we've got a barrage of reviews with more coming later today. Are Meta's Oakley glasses worth the extra money? Should Insta360 be scared of DJI's new camera? Read on!

The helicopter parent’s dream sneaker.
Find My Skechers is a new line of children's shoes that encourages parents to hide an Apple AirTag under the heel.

DJI Osmo 360 review
A capable action cam that's a real threat to Insta360.
DJI is finally taking on rising rival Insta360 with its first panoramic action camera. The company has tried to one-up the competition with a new sensor design, up to 8K 50 fps 10-bit log recording and a smaller, lighter body. It also matches or beats its rival in other areas, with similar battery life and superior low-light capability. However, the editing app still needs some work.
Oakley Meta glasses review
A familiar formula.
Meta’s newest smartglasses collaboration taps Oakley instead of Ray-Ban. Some solid upgrades here will appeal to serious athletes and power users, but with a starting price of nearly $400, are those upgrades worth an extra $100 - $200 compared to the Ray-Ban iteration? Maybe not. We know that Meta will add displays and, eventually, full augmented reality capabilities to its wearable glasses. They are also likely to cost significantly more than these.
