    It was “Meta”, but now they’re going all-in on AI, so they’ll probably want to go “MetAI” except that it’s lame and so are all the other various portmanteaus, so they’ll pivot to something inexplicable and wild like “Everything” or “AllAI”

    I’m going to guess they’ll keep it and justify it as “metadata”. Like the metadata of it’s users that it sells

    Well, by induction since the last hype was the “metaverse” and they rebranded to Meta, so because now the hype is “AI” they’ll rebrand to A

      Since there is still nothing actually worth calling “metaverse” as the sci-fi concept it was promised to be, they might go for something around AGI.

  It’s like tattooing your new girlfriend’s name on your ass.
