Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg gave a virtual address during WhatsApp's Conversations event, held in Mumbai, on September 20. The event was held to launch a line-up of key offerings by WhatsApp Business including multiple payment options, customer experience flows, Meta-verified businesses, and more. During his address, Zuckerberg hailed India as a world leader in how people and businesses have embraced messaging as a better way to get things done.
“India is a country that's at the forefront of a lot of what we're going to talk about today. You're leading the world in terms of how people and businesses have embraced messaging as the better way to get things done,” Zuckerberg said.
Will Cathcart, head of WhatsApp, also took to X to speak about these launches. He said, “For everyone that chats with businesses on @WhatsApp, we've got lots of great improvements coming, including a way for business to build richer in-chat experiences that will make it easier to do things like book an appointment or buy a ticket, all within the app”.
The announcements included a new Meta verified badge for businesses and the expansion of payments service that will facilitate the completion of purchases directly in the chat. These features will both highlight verified businesses separately, protecting them from fraud from scammers who use same-name businesses as well as allow consumers to browse, select, and make purchases directly from their WhatsApp chat window.
Zuckerberg also spoke about WhatsApp Flows, which will give businesses the ability to create customized experiences within chat threads. This will be an automation feature that will direct consumers to the products they want, without needing a real person to interact with.
He also gave examples and said that 'WhatsApp Flows' can speed up cumbersome processes and help customers reach their destination quickly. He said banks can build flows for customers to book an appointment to open a new account, food delivery services can build flows to place orders from any partnering restaurants, and airlines could create flows to let a traveler check-in for a flight and pick up a seat. He highlighted that all of this could be done without them ever leaving the chat window.
“We've been hearing from a lot of businesses that they're very eager to build more credibility and get greater visibility. So I'm excited to start rolling out Meta Verified in the coming months," Zuckerberg added.

Mark Zuckerberg, head honcho of the organisation formerly known as Facebook, has completed his first interview entirely conducted within his company's eponymous Metaverse. And it's sort of impressive, sort of unnerving and sort of meh, all rolled into one.
A new survey has revealed some shocking information about employee approvals for their CEOs in the tech space. According to its results, 83 percent of the employees approve of the work Tim Cook is doing as the CEO of Apple. On the other hand, X chief Linda Yaccarino found herself among the lowest-ranked tech CEOs with an approval rating of just 4 percent. That means, only four out of one hundred employees thought of her work as the head of the company as significant or to have a positive impact.
There might not have been any battle of the brawn between Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, but when it comes to a battle of the brains, the Meta CEO has won out—at least according to a study from online tutoring firm Preply.
Baldur's Gate 3 is chock full of hotties to romance, whether you're into no-nonsense goths like Shadowheart, snarky vampires like Astarion, or heroic do-gooders like Wyll. But many have gravitated toward the tall, dark, and handsome glass of red wine that is Karlach, at least, going by the internet and the spike in sales for her MTG card. In reality, more people have been bumping uglies with a mind flayer.

Though the fines levied on Meta Platforms Inc. over the past few years have reached into the billions of dollars, I've long felt the greater punishment for Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg was the paralysis his company endured. A dorky engineer at heart, Zuckerberg appeared ill equipped and disinterested in playing the diplomatic role needed to pull the social network's reputation up from the gutter.
Developer Harebrained Schemes are no stranger to the turn-based strategy genre.
