Yahoo has announced the acquisition of Artifact, an AI-powered news app developed by Instagram co-founders Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger, for an undisclosed sum. This strategic move comes just weeks after Yahoo laid off leaders at Engadget and some editors at TechCrunch, highlighting a shift towards leveraging advanced AI technologies. Artifact, which had announced it would be winding down operations in January, is known for its personalized news recommendation technology. Yahoo plans to integrate Artifact's technology across its services, including and especially Yahoo News. Mike Krieger and Kevin Systrom will serve as special advisors to Yahoo but will not join the company. The acquisition, which has been positively received by both companies and their communities, signals Yahoo's commitment to enhancing its offerings with AI-powered news aggregation capabilities.

All it really did was show you recommended articles from mainstream��� https://t.co/ztIFG4Up3h https://t.co/8Bh3t8GZsP

Feels kind of nostalgic that an app I use is selling to Yahoo. Sorta weird that it's an app by the founders of Instagram... "Mike Krieger and Kevin Systrom will be special advisors for Yahoo but won’t be joining the company" Unf they are killing the app, which I do like. https://t.co/MjPMkzUuTO
