Summary
Twitter plans on expanding its Community Notes feature where volunteer contributors can add context to posts in order to combat misinformation. If the notes are voted as helpful, they show up for all Twitter users. Language learning app Memrise is launching a Discord integration for its Membot and website. At Computex, Nvidia showed off the ability to talk in natural language to NPCs via its Avatar Cloud Engine, or ACE for Games. Is it something game devs will be looking into or is it just a fancy tech demo?
Starring Tom Merritt, Rich Stroffolino, Scott Johnson, Roger Chang, Joe.
