Meta AI launched in September 2023 using the Llama 2 learning language model. Nearly a year later, Meta has announced a new round of features for its AI assistant and a fresh LLM to support it: Llama 3.1.  These updates include an expansion of who can access Meta AI . Thanks to the addition of Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru and Cameroon, the assistant is now available in 22 countries. It’s also accessible in new languages: French, German, Hindi, Hindi-Romanized Script, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish.

One of the best horror movies of 2024 has an ending that’s sublimely sick and satisfying. And that very last shot came by chance.  When Mashable sat down with Oddity writer/director Damian McCarthy — and the Wooden Man at the film’s center — we learned how the last brutal beat in the multifaceted horror story came to be.  Sure, Oddity begins with a frightening premise of home invasion: a woman alone, renovating her remote country house, hears a knock at the door only to be confronted by a wild-eyed stranger who warns her that someone has snuck inside and means to hurt her.
