Meta has launched new AI models for Muse and Meta AI, introducing Active Memory and Active Focus. These features improve memory retention and task persistence, making interactions more reliable and intuitive for you.
What Are Active Memory and Active Focus?
Active Memory helps Muse and Meta AI remember what matters across conversations, so you can pick up where you left off. The models learn to distinguish between temporary and important information, making it easier to stay on track with your goals.
Active Focus ensures the models keep working toward a goal, even when obstacles arise. They’re trained on real-world scenarios to handle setbacks and find alternatives, making them more resilient in everyday use.
How Do These Features Benefit You?
With Active Memory, you’ll experience fewer interruptions and better continuity in your conversations. The models are better at retaining critical details, so you don’t have to repeat yourself as often.
Active Focus means the AI can handle unexpected issues without giving up. Whether you’re managing a project or just running errands, the models adjust and keep going, making your tasks more efficient.
What’s Next for Meta AI?
The updates are rolling out today, so you can start using the new features right away. Mark Zuckerberg shared the news on X, confirming that these improvements are available to all users of Muse and Meta AI.
The UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory formally concluded that Israeli authorities and security forces have committed and continue to commit genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. The Commission determined that Israel satisfied four of the five core acts under the 1948 Genocide Convention—including killing members of the group, causing serious bodily or mental harm, and deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about their physical destruction. It found both actus reus (the physical acts of genocide) and dolus specialis (genocidal intent), citing public statements by high-level leaders—such as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Isaac Herzog, and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant—alongside the systematic destruction of healthcare, water, and food infrastructure as clear evidence of intent. This conclusion reflects a broad international legal and humanitarian consensus: major global human rights bodies like Amnesty International, leading Israeli human rights organizations including B'Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights Israel, and numerous international aid coalitions have independently concluded or warned that Israel's campaign in Gaza constitutes genocide.
Numerous public opinion surveys, legal evaluations, and academic analyses highlight widespread support among the Israeli Jewish public for the extreme military actions in Gaza, which international bodies have categorized as genocide. Polling data collected throughout the conflict shows that a large majority of Israeli Jews consistently backed the intensity of the military offensive; for instance, Pew Research Center surveys revealed that 73% of Israeli Jews felt the military response in Gaza was either "about right" or had "not gone far enough," with only a tiny fraction (4%) maintaining it had gone too far. A joint survey by Tel Aviv University and the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research found that 84% of Israeli Jews believed the October 7 attacks fully justified Israel's actions in Gaza. Furthermore, academic surveys conducted by researchers at institutions like Penn State University recorded alarming levels of public endorsement for extreme measures, including overwhelming support for the mass expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza and significant backing for denying basic humanitarian aid. Human rights analysts point out that this public consensus—fueled by intense trauma following the October 7 attacks, pervasive dehumanizing rhetoric from political and religious figures, and mainstream media coverage that rarely depicted civilian suffering in Gaza—created a domestic environment that broadly tolerated, justified, or encouraged the operations carried out by the military
