Instacart hopes to beat Amazon’s “Just Walk Out Tech” with a “Connected Store” experience that blends existing and new technologies to smooth the in-store shopping experience. Facebook rolls out a Reels API to share from 3rd party apps and BeReal begins monetizing its platform. And the company behind “Deep Nostalgia” tech used by the service MyGenealogy is launching Creative Reality Studio. A service that creates virtual human-like presenters complete with synthesized voice for presentations. Creepy!

Starring Tom Merritt, Sarah Lane, Lamarr Wilson, Roger Chang, Joe.
