this is where mark zuckerberg has unveiled things like profile overhauls and music discovery features. he's expected to focus on messenger to monetize the 900 million users who use the platform and we will hear more about their live video ambitions. underneath all of it is a question sparking debate among pundits and investors. our facebook posts getting less personal? joining us to discuss that is sarah frier in the studio. what are we expecting? we are expecting to hear everything from messenger products and whatsapp included and virtual reality. this is the conference where facebook lays it all out. a lot of the current buzz is

around bots and what they might do to help businesses use artificial intelligence. emily: this is what allows you to order uber, book a restaurant, i wonder how many people are doing that in messenger? guest: it is very small so far but what a lot of analyst are once facebook opens the ability to build bots more widely, facebook is making the move in the odds area. -- the pots area. emily: isn't that the same thing that got microsoft in trouble? thoughticrosoft had a thatstarted -- had a bot had racist tendencies. if they build something to have humanlike capabilities, who knows if it will go off the rails.

emily: what should we be watching for? toid: i think people tend underestimate the scope of the way zuckerberg tends to think about the whole thing. internet.org are the front of his attention and it would not surprise me if he talked about that. it has been such a challenge for facebook with the push back in india, egypt, and elsewhere. i think that bots are and interesting question. it may not be that people actually want to buy things or interact with companies. placer has been a great and i think facebook is looking to copy and improve. he has a mobile transaction

business and has a lot of history. i want to talk about this question of whether people are sharing less personal content on facebook. according to the information, sharing of personal stories has declined 21%. sayy facebook employees that is a good thing, saying as intimate sharing declines as generic content sharing increases, facebook becomes a well curated twitter at mega-scale, very bad for twitter. what if total sharing is in decline, which it has been for over a year? they went on to say based on this information, why would you not just short twitter, but facebook. facebook has been in a panic about this. : facebook has not come out

and said they are worried about this, but they are. we have seen very openly how facebook is trying to combat this. yesterday, everyone was posting about national sibling day. they are using things like the post that brings up memories of the past, those are attempts by facebook to combat this personal sharing decline and get able to start talking about things that are more intimate. emily: the news outlet is saying this problem is particularly acute with younger people and it is affecting instagram. we might infer that traffic is going to snapchat. how big a problem do you think this is? david: facebook claims total

sharing is not in decline. i know from watching my 23-year-old daughter, which is only your focus group of one, instagram has taken over for all facebookings she uses for and she is sharing like crazy but she's only sharing images. it's not the same day. . think it could be a problem i don't since it is a problem now but it is almost funny the way facebook executives are sharing about their mothers i hadand sibling day -- never even heard of sibling day, nor do i care about it but i did them funny pictures of mark zuckerberg him when he was a kid which i'm sure emerged because they are trying to set an example that this is how you are supposed to use facebook. emily: some interesting questions about what facebook is becoming.

thank you so much. we are going to be doing some big interviews from the developers conference including with the facebook vp of messaging tomorrow and the facebook cto on wednesday. tesla is recalling 2700 model x sport utility vehicles, strength test revealed issues with the third row seats. tesla is advising drivers not to have anyone sit in the third row while the car is in use. it covers vehicles made before march when he sixth. they are now constructing third row seat back and expects to replace them all within five weeks. this followed the unveiling of the mass market model three sedan that received over 325,000 preorders. emerging, a new suitor in the standoff over yahoo!. we will break it down and with the company has to gain. and why the whole media world

tabloid in the world? guest: i guess you could say they have a wide appeal. at the end of the day, it looks like a newspaper trying to find a digital way and saying check us out. emily: it is interesting that the list of suitors gets longer and longer for this company that supposedly nobody wanted. what do you make about the daily mail? david: i know the daily mail actually well. match in terms a of the market. pope's a mass market, culture oriented type of audience they are looking for, ordinary people who want moderately entertaining news. it's not that far away from what

they people at yahoo! had. the most compelling combination is with verizon and the whole thing with tim armstrong which looks very likely to be something they want to have happen is a very compelling combination. think it could be a good potential buyer. emily: and the daily mail has been beefing up its presence, focusing on younger users and the celebrities. but the list in general was like 40 different companies looking at yahoo! now. david: you hear a lot of numbers and there are a lot of new name coming every day. there's definitely a lot of names but you could say it is good for yahoo!.

at least we are seeing a lot of interest. guest: i think it is interesting sony people have faith that yahoo! still matters. as one of those dinosaurs is still uses yahoo! mail, i hope they keep that up. .t's a big technical challenge if a company like the daily mail owns it, they will have to beef up their tech shop. some people have valued the core business at less than nothing. take a look at what marissa mayer's told me about what the core business is about. itissa: my goal is to make as much as it can possibly be worth.

well is our costs something we pride ourselves on and doing our best to return shareholder value. emily: not a concrete answer, but what are the numbers we are looking at? brian: i think is going to be interesting on some level. results, here is the revenue, but at the end of the day, you're going to listen for any droplets on how is the sale process going? not going to get a lot out of the sale and it's going to be interesting how that dynamic works. emily: we were speaking about a sharing issue on facebook and how a decade ago, maybe yahoo! was the place to go for news and now it is facebook. potentiallyk is

having difficulties. is it ever possible to be in reverse and make a comeback when it comes to a news media site like technology turnaround have not been very successful? can it happen in media? david: it can happen but there are not many people like steve jobs out there. it hasn't been cool for a really long time. the right buyer consolidating with the right properties could make something a lot of people want to use. tim armstrong combining with aol could be interesting, and it is fascinating. having worked there for 25 years, i think there'd digital strategy has endlessly been wrong. i hope that doesn't happen for the sake of yahoo! but it's

interesting how many companies think they can do something interesting. what if alibaba bought it? that is not out of the question. companyhe one prominent not on that list is alibaba. jack ma seems to not want any part of it. he didn't have a nice things to say about yahoo! when ice folks to him a few months ago. david kirkpatrick, thank you so much for stopping by. i know we will be asking you every day what is going on and you will keep us posted. thanks guys. to theup, we had bloomberg businessweek design conference where we will catch up with a 26 rolled hacker taking on tesla and google. tomorrow, i sit down with a gender a silicon valley investor peter thiel. don't miss that interview. more "bloomberg west" of next. -- up next.

in the car and running some fancy algorithms that learn to associate images with actions. cory: the car has gotten better at doing this or did the software get better? : how you drive a car is an incredibly, located problem. you can try to give it a lot of rules but it doesn't work. cory: why doesn't it work? george: because there are too many rules. you can do it. adjusting different speed than changing lanes? george: try to write up a complete list. it's impossible. you have to look for other ways that are not just programming. you have to learn it from experience. cory: is that a hack?

book. #askgaryv. he makes the bold claims that c.e.o.'s are to blame for everything that goes wrong at their companies. i sat down with him and asked him to test his theory and started by asking, is it jack 's fault that twitter has seen its stock slide and user growth stagnate? take a listen. guest: no. because he's not been in place long enough. i don't think six months -- emily: whose fault is it? guest: dick is one of my favorite human beings i've ever met. if we're going to go on this thesis, he had a nice long run and the product didn't innovate enough. now, again, this is why i don't like blanket statements. i don't know if dick had a deal with all the dynamics on the board, all the original founders, maybe he was crippled by the politics. i don't know. but the product did not change for five years, it lost the attention of the young consumer. that's what all these people trade on. i don't think it's his -- definitely not jack's fault. he's only been back for a few minutes. but they have to make moves. i think the product has real

flaws. i'm sitting with you right now because of twitter. twitter put me on the map. emily: you were an early investor. guest: early invester from the outgoing c.t.o. that's how i got in. emily: a huge platform for you. guest: it changed my life. it's like my high school crush. i sit here sad. i wish it was better. i have a lot of leverage odge on it. i don't want it to go away. but no question the attention of the young consumer, i can get a lot more accomplished through my snapchat or instagram which have much smaller followers than my twitter, because the attention isn't there. emily: what would you like to see happen with twitter? streaming nfl games. guest: that's going to have a huge impact on the television industry because it's going to make everybody understand that netflix is not the only over the top network. once people really understand what's happening here, which is facebook and snapchat are equally dangerous for abc, nbc, bloomberg television, and everybody else, because anybody can now play over the top on the internet it's -- i think

the twitter nfl deal is something we'll look back on 15 to 20 years from now as one of the important moments of where the world was going. that's good. i think they have to kill the 140-character limit. it's a romantic thing. emily: he already said that. guest: i disagree with him. he might be right. i disagree. i think it's a romantic point of view from a restriction of mobile devices years ago. i think they need to have a stream. i think they need to have a news feed. i think they have to curate the content. emily: moments isn't enough. what do you mean by a stream? guest: i think it should default into not showing you everything. if you want to go the other way, cool, and then i think when something actually happens, which is what twitter's best for, they should go to the old school breaking news and go back to old twitter. so if i was running product, i would go to a curated feed, which is what has to happen, it's proven, that's what has to happen. what facebook and instagram is doing is right. it keeps people on it longer. it's data, not just my opinion. emily: they have moved toward a

timeline. guest: not as default. they go their default. we're capable of switching it back on. and then when there's a world infinite or big game, i think they can go into breaking news and open it back up to be the water cooler that it actually is. that's my two cents. emily: what about facebook? they're making a big play for live. you normally think of twitter as live. now they're paying publishers to do live video on facebook. facebook has by all accounts been winning at almost everything. whether it's video and advertising. guest: because it's the best. and because -- emily: can they win it live and, there's a new report out today that publishers have actually seen traffic decline on facebook. guest: i don't know if there's a company i'm more bullish on. i don't know if there's management team that i have more confidence in. i knew those guys and gals super early on. i'm not super close to it. just watching it from afar. emily: you also invested early on.

guest: not that early. it's good. it would have been way better if it was a little bit earlier. i think mark zuckerberg offering $3 billion for snapchat 18 months ago has to, for anybody who's watching this right now, solidify him as one of the strongest c.e.o.'s of this generation. he understands attention better than anybody. i'm so blown away by the way he's navigated -- he's a kid. how old is he? 31? emily: far younger than both of us. guest: he's dramatically more emotionally intelligent than people realize. his people skills are really strong which translated into social network. of course facebook can win on live. do you know what scale of attention facebook has? of course some people have seen declining traffic from facebook, because a lot of people put out crap. if you're putting out crap, people aren't going to share it and put it out. just like people have seen declining of open rates and email over the last 10 years because a lot of you send out

spam. i think there's plenty of that are seeing an increase of facebook traffic. i see this every day. i'm very bullish on facebook. facebook and instagram are two of the three platforms that are dominating people's attention. emily: what about snapchat? does it change the social media landscape? guest: absolutely. it is the absolute darling of the dance right now. i do believe that the proven that it will age up. i fully sit here comfortable predicting that in 24 months a lot more of your grandmothers and older uncles are going to be on it. emily: could it kill twitter? what does snapchat threaten? guest: everybody. all they're playing for is attention. snapchat threatens this. this show. it threatens the magazine over there. it threatens the billboard that's highly overpriced right out there right now because everybody in the passenger seat is looking at their phone. all of these people are playing for the same thing.

it depends how you look at it. i would say that's enough time. in year one, year two, you're unwinding a lot of things. i think wall street-based companies have it a little bit different. the truth is, you're playing in a game this channel, you're playing in a game of 90-day term. if i got to run yahoo! when marissa took over and i had it off of wall street and had my life to run it, i would be doing a lot different behavior. i think the pressure of what wall streit wants her to -- what wall street wants her to do is short term behavior. it's hard for me to judge. i don't look at the wall street c.e.o. the same way i look at a pre-i.p.o. c.e.o. but it uses a lot of time. emily: verizon is preceding with a bid. guest: in that three years, marissa could have tried to buy snapchat for $4 billion 24 mobblets ago. that could have worked possibly. emily: highly doubt that evan would have said yes. guest: you're right. there's those things. i always think that when you're in full control, you can do

things. and so i think the results are results are results. i'm a big believer in the market is the market. but i'm also not naive that stockholders and the game you're playing dictate some of those outcomes. emily: yahoo! is for sale. though she still believes she could turn it around if she had significantly more time. guest: i agree with her. these are big companies. the thought that -- i think a private equity seven-year terms on wall street, three years, these are big companies, like, it would be nice if they could have 10 years to prove it but you don't. emily: right. verizon is proceeding a bid. is that the right thing fauriahood and verizon and -- for yahoo! and neverize and marissa? guest: i never really -- i'm not going to come on this show with the people that are watching and every cry for c.e.o.'s of fortune 500 companies. they always do ok. whether they win or lose. where there is not a lot is once you're able to achieve a c.e.o. status, whether you did a good job or bad job, you tend to get paid quite well.

i don't know. to me, i view her from afar. i don't know her. as pretty strong actually. so, i think for her own operation, wants and needs and ego and feelings, it might not be good. because she probably wants to see it through. verizon, i think this is maybe doubling and tripling down on the things that a.o.l. has brought to their table. as far as yahoo!, i don't know. it's such a convoluted situation. you have -- this is where i would say marissa may be left something on the table, again, without knowing if she could or couldn't do this. when you need to break out, you can't go safe. you have to be aggressive. tumblr was a big play. as an early investor in tumblr, i was happy about that. those are things you need. for verizon, it feels right. because i do think that some of the a.o.l. content things within the pipes that they're trying to create have brought them value. and i do think the individual pieces of yahoo! potentially could be quite valuable. emily: was tumblr really the right bet? guest: it was the wrong bet. it was the right kind of bet.

tumblr ended up being the wrong bet because even at the time they did it, this is probably why even though i was a little disappointed, because i thought there was more room to go, tumblr missed their opportunity to go to mobile the way they needed to. a year or two earlier. and so i would say no. it wasn't the right bet. because -- but it was the right kind of effort. mily: my interview with gary vaynerchuk. the digital media and ecommerce platform hype beast is enjoying the best debut of any asian i.p.o. this year. surging more than 700% in monday trade, the 10-year-old company started off as an online sneaker forum but has grown to include a handful of lifestyle websites and a web store. the platform has attracted more than 46 million page views a month in the 2015 fiscal year. its biggest revenue generating markets are the u.s. and hong kong. and secure works launching its i.p.o. road show this week,

out there right now. more photography happening right now than ever before by a long shot. i once saw a statistic that more pictures have been taken in the past three years than the previous 100. it's not outlandish. tell me what are the numbers? guest: the big number is the number of smartphones. all smartphones have cameras and that means that we're talking about more than one billion sold every year. and this compares to analogue cameras, the peak year they would sell 20 million. cory: not even comparable. guest: no. and it's easier than ever. you always have your phone with you. you always take photos. cory: what's the role of this, your cam remarks which is way cool, but what is the role this camera, when everybody's already got a camera, i'm going to look at the instant pictures you took, snap a picture of that and put it on my instagram account, because that's sort of how i share pictures. what's the role of this? in that society? guest: you're going to share your pictures on instagram and

they're going to move down on your feed and they're gone basically. they're in your phone, you're not going to look back at it ever again. that photo, if you choose to keep it, will -- cory: will you let me keep it? guest: it will live with you, whether you put it on your fridge or apartment, it will mean something. it will mean even more if you took that photo of somebody you cared about. basically it's just this idea of taking meaningful photos that you care about. you have limitations. the film isn't free. it encourages you to take photos that matter to you. the phone kind of lets you make mistakes, lets you take photos of food and everything and put it on instagram and do it. as impossible project we really -- cory: you think no one's going take an instant picture of soup? guest: i don't think so. there's nothing wrong with that. but if somebody really loves soup, maybe they would. at the end of the day it has to mean something to you.

cory: interestingly, while you went to try to revive this old technology, you had to do a completely new way, a new chemical process and kinds of fillle -- film. guest: yeah. we had to start from scratch. building. he some of them were scrap and some of them aren't allowed to be used now. we had to reinvent it. a startup with two stact factories. cory: that process gives you film that doesn't have batteries. guest: right. we can move those. cory: you launch today, how much does it cost? guest: $299 and the launching on may 10 on improbableproject.com. cory: it's a really interesting concept to think about. oskar, thank you very much. emily, cool stuff, don't you think? emily: very cool. cory johnson, our editor at
