<p>On Facebook, Download Your Information will also show you some of the inferences Facebook makes about you. For instance, it might show you that it&#8217;s recommending football-related content because you shared an article about football with a friend. And on Instagram, you&#8217;ll be able to see categories assigned to some accounts &#8212; like sports or fashion &#8212; that are used to suggest content in the Explore tab.</p>
<p>You probably won&#8217;t do much with this data, but it could be interesting to see how Facebook and Instagram are keeping tabs on you and why they&#8217;re recommending certain content. Last year, Facebook also <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019-07-11-facebook-ads-policy-transparency.html">increased transparency about ads</a>, sharing details about why you were matched with specific advertising. While it may seem like this is a noble step for Facebook, it&#8217;s driven, at least in part, by regulation like the <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2020-01-20-gdpr-fines-dla-piper-report.html">General Data Protection Regulation</a> in Europe and the <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2018-06-28-california-consumer-privacy-act-ruling.html">California Consumer Privacy Act</a>. As we&#8217;ve said before, Facebook <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019-03-07-mark-zuckerberg-facebook-privacy-focused-strategy.html">only cares about privacy because it has to</a>.</p>

<p>The chipmaker also unveiled a next-gen <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/01/23/intel-realsense-tracking-camera-t265/">Movidius</a> Vision Processing Unit whose updated computer vision architecture promises over 10 times the inference performance while reportedly managing efficiency six times better than rivals.  Those claims have yet to pan out in the real world, but it&#8217;s safe to presume that anyone relying on Intel tech for visual AI work will want to give this a look.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ll have to be patient for the Movidius chip when it won&#8217;t ship until sometime in the first half of 2020.  This could nonetheless represent a big leap for AI performance, at least among companies that aren&#8217;t relying on rivals <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2018/12/12/nvidia-jetson-agx-xavier-robot-processor-available/">like NVIDIA</a>.  Intel warned that bleeding-edge uses of AI could require performance to double every 3.5 months &#8212; that&#8217;s not going to happen if companies simply rely on conventional CPUs.  And when internet giants like Facebook and Baidu lean heavily on Intel for AI, you might see practical benefits like faster site loads or <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019-10-26-facebook-hides-people-from-facial-recognition.html">more advanced AI features</a>.</p>
