Kevin Systrom And Mike Kriegerengineers, creators instagramthey are back to work with a new app called artifact.

This app has been described Platformer as “a kind of TikTok text”. How will it work?

It will be an artifact

artifact aims to offer a news feed to users who will find them thanks to its algorithm based on machine learning. As with TikTok and other apps, the software will learn our preferences and interests in order to show us more content.

In this way, he tries to take advantage of the fact that more and more users are reading information and watching news through social networks instead of more traditional platforms such as radio or television. In part, it will even compete with Twitter.

Later, the application will allow you to follow users and publish your own articles, as well as receive direct messages from friends and followers.

The app is currently in closed beta, but users can already try accessing this link by adding their phone number.

To be up to date, Systrom and Krieger are clear that they want to offer quality information and they will go to reputable sources and grow in publications as they verify they are reliable.

The app is planned to be free and will be available for both Android and iOS.

instagram past

Systrom and Mike Krieger launched instagram in 2010, causing a sensation all over the Internet, so much so that it caught the attention of the rising Facebook.

In 2012, the giant bought it for a billion dollars, and Systrom and Mike Krieger continued to work with him. However, management changes forced both engineers to leave the project.
