As a first step of the Collaborators feature test, Zuckerberg added Adam Mosseri, the CEO of  Instagram to the broadcast channel Meta to highlight the chat with some brilliant moves. 

While the majority of channel members expressed their interest in additional creative tools, a poll conducted after the Collaborator session revealed that many members were also intrigued by AI chatbots and image generators.
