Quick Glance: Meta Quarterly Results: Revenue Expectations Lowered, Stock Fell

Meta's quarterly results exceeded expectations, but the revenue forecast for the next quarter was lowered.

Despite successful ad business and increasing user numbers, Meta's stock experienced a drop of over 10 percent.

Analysts caution about Meta's reduced revenue expectations for the second quarter, leading to investor skepticism.

Zuckerberg plans to significantly increase investments in AI models in the coming years to enhance Meta's leading position in the artificial intelligence domain.

Quick Glance: AI Revolutionizing Call Centers: TCS Insights

The head of Tata Consultancy Services predicts chatbots will reduce the need for human call center agents significantly, revolutionizing the industry.

TCS's generative AI projects have doubled in value to $900 million by March, highlighting the increasing demand for tech talent and the need for workforce training.

Reports suggest that overall IT services growth is affected by global uncertainties like inflation, war, and elections, leading to a decline in spending and slower revenue growth for companies like TCS and Infosys.

Infosys anticipates a modest 1-3% sales growth in the upcoming financial year due to customers delaying discretionary spending on new tech projects amidst the current economic climate.

Apple Event on May 7: iPads Likely: The event invite shows an Apple Pencil in a hand. iPads are overdue.

Quick Glance: Apple announces event on May 7

Apple will host an event on May 7, where the long-awaited revamped versions of the iPad Pro and iPad Air are expected to be revealed.

These new models would signify Apple's first major overhaul of this product line since 2018, as iPad sales have decreased, prompting the company to introduce new products to stimulate demand.

In the first quarter, iPad sales dropped by 25% to $7.02 billion, alongside a slowdown in iPhone sales.

The event is scheduled to commence at 7 a.m. PT, corresponding to 2 p.m. GMT, and Apple is also preparing for its Worldwide Developers Conference from June 10 to June 14.

Quick Glance: ByteDance Would Consider Closing TikTok in US Over Sale, Sources Claim

ByteDance would prefer to cease TikTok operations rather than engage in a sale if all legal avenues are exhausted to combat potential legislation banning the platform in US app stores, as per four sources.

Despite TikTok's massive popularity with over a billion users, it remains unprofitable, contributing a small fraction to ByteDance's overall revenues and daily active user base.

ByteDance stated on Thursday in a release on Toutiao, a media platform it possesses, that there are no intentions to sell TikTok, in response to claims from The Information about ByteDance exploring sale scenarios for TikTok's US operations excluding the recommending algorithm for user videos.

As of December, ByteDance's valuation stood at $268 billion when it proposed a buyback of approximately $5 billion in shares from investors.

Oscar-winning screenwriter Aaron Sorkin reveals he is working on a new movie that could be a follow-up to The Social Network.

Sorkin blames Facebook for January 6 and plans to address how social media is impacting democracy.

While Sorkin's representatives have not responded yet, sources mention the project is in early stages of development with no attached studio.

Instagram begins blurring nudity in messages to protect teens and fight sexual extortion

Quick Glance: Instagram blurs nudity in messages to protect teens and combat sexual extortion

Instagram has introduced new tools to protect young people and combat sexual extortion, including a feature that automatically blurs nudity in direct messages.

The platform is testing out these features as part of its campaign against sexual scams and other forms of image abuse, aiming to make it harder for criminals to contact teens.

In addition to blurring nudity in direct messages, Instagram is also planning a nudity protection feature that blurs images with nudity and encourages users to think twice before sending nude pictures.

Critics view this as a positive step but call for further actions, especially for recipients of unwanted content.
