Meanwhile, AI company Anthropic secures funding, online shopping sees an increase, and wildfires rage in Southern California.
Meta is ending its third-party fact-checking program. Tesla raised concerns about stickier inflation. The markets will be closed Thursday for a national day of mourning for former President Jimmy Carter. Instead, Meta will shift to a ‘ Community Notes ’ system, similar to Elon Musk ’s X platform.
Meta, which announced the changes on Fox News, is also getting back to its roots and focusing on reducing mistakes, simplifying policies, and restoring free expression on its platforms, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said. President-elect Donald Trump praised the changes, CNBC’s Hayden Field reported. Meanwhile, AI company Anthropic, founded by former OpenAI researchers, secured funding in a round led by Lightspeed Venture Partners. Online shopping during November and December increased compared to the previous year, driven by discounts and AI shopping assistants. Grocery spending surged almost 13% to $21.5 billion, while cosmetics sales jumped 12.2% to $7.7 billion. Multiple wildfires are burning in Southern California, including the Palisades Fire, Eaton Fire, and Hurst Fire, which have affected thousands of acres. The fires are 0% contained
