Yahoo is buying Artifact, the news startup launched by Instagram co-founders Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger. The company’s personalization technology will be integrated across Yahoo, including the Yahoo News app, in the coming months. At this point, the app will no longer exist in its original form.

Disclosure: Yahoo is TechCrunch’s parent company.
