"While theoretically anyone can post to the feed, Meta seeds a decent amount of the videos (look for accounts with the "AI" tag in their bio - that's a Meta-created account). So far, the reaction online to Vibes has been, uh, well, pretty negative. The consensus seems to be that Meta sunk hundreds of millions of dollars into hiring the best people in AI, and what they created was a useless and unwanted feed of AI slop."
"Let's start with something positive about Vibes, the new feed in the Meta AI app that shows short AI-generated video clips. The Vibes feed replaces the previous Discover feed, which was full of conversations with a chatbot that people didn't realize had been posted to a public feed. That was really bad! A huge privacy headache! We're all glad it's been replaced!"
Vibes is a new feed in the Meta AI app that serves an almost endless stream of short, AI-generated video clips and currently lacks personalization. The feed replaced a Discover feed that exposed chatbot conversations publicly, closing a major privacy problem. Many videos are seeded by Meta through accounts labeled “AI,” though anyone can theoretically post. Early online reaction has been broadly negative, with critics calling the output useless despite Meta's heavy investment in AI talent. Sample clips include surreal and disjointed scenes such as animals in odd scenarios and pop-culture mashups, leaving purpose and quality unclear.
