Facebook buys startup to boost cryptocurrency Libra experience
Aiming to make its cryptocurrency Libra customer friendly when it arrives next year, Facebook has acquired a startup called Servicefriend that builds Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven bots for messaging apps.
The Israel-based startup is known for building “Hybrid Bot Architecture” – an approach that offers the enterprise the scalability of a bot with the intelligence, comprehension, and empathy of a human.
“We acquire smaller tech companies from time to time. We don”t always discuss our plans,” a Facebook spokesperson told TechCrunch.
