#Instagram’s founders shut down Artifact, news app

Instagram co-founders Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger have announced that they are shutting down their AI-powered news aggregator app, Artifact, less than a year after its launch. The app was known for AI-centric features as well as Reddit-like commenting and posting abilities. The app had won praise from journalists who appreciated reporter-friendly features like dedicated author pages and had been featured prominently in Apple and Google’s app stores. However, the co-founders concluded that the market opportunity wasn't significant enough to justify further investment.
