Tl;dr: Meta has to use Gemini, because their own AI can't keep up. And then Google cut off their access.

In yet another sign that his company is seriously struggling to keep up in the AI race, Google informed Meta earlier this year that it was cutting Meta off from the Gemini AI capacity it needed, the Financial Times reports.

Ironically, the lack of access to Gemini — which is far superior to anything Meta has built in-house — slowed down Meta’s own AI projects, including data moderation and customer services, highlighting how heavily Zuckerberg’s company is leaning on its competitors as its own AI efforts languish.

Gemini was supposed to be catching scammers for them.
But when caught, meta only charged them more, it didn’t delete the accounts.
