Facebook’s new AI Mode search gets its info from public posts

SMRTR summary

Facebook's new AI Mode search feature pulls answers from public posts across Meta's platforms instead of showing traditional links. Powered by the Muse Spark AI model, it lets users ask follow-up questions based on results. Over time, it will expand to cite content from Instagram and Threads — similar to how Google already uses Reddit threads to inform its search results.
