ML Applications

We use artificial intelligence and machine learning across Meta to improve our products and services. We develop and advance algorithms that rank feeds and search results, create new text-understanding algorithms that keep spam and misleading content at bay, and automatically caption videos in your News Feed through our speech-recognition systems. We’re also responsible for displaying billions of translated stories every day, developing computer-vision algorithms that make images and videos accessible to the blind, and creating magical visual experiences such as turning panorama photos into fully interactive 360 images. Our efforts form the glue between science, research, and Meta’s experiences.
