Meta plans to launch an AI-powered prediction market app, Arena, which will allow users to bet on real-world events using virtual "play money." The app, which has been codenamed "Antwerp" and "FBForecast," will use artificial intelligence to drive the service, including automatically generating questions and making personalized market recommendations. Unlike existing prediction market apps that use real money, Arena will not require wagering actual funds, and the AI will resolve markets in "near real-time." Meta has instructed a team to start building the app, which is expected to launch for both iPhones and Android devices after a prototype is tested by employees.
