Meta AI, the company’s open-source AI chatbot, is being ramped up across Meta’s platforms, including Instagram, Facebook, Messenger and WhatsApp. Eagle-eyed users spotted Meta testing more prominent integration of the chatbot on April 15, and Mark Zuckerberg just announced the official rollout has begun.
Zuckerberg also announced that the chatbot is now powered by Llama 3. This is one of the most significant updates to the product since it was first released at the company’s Connect event last year.
You’ll also be able to use Meta AI using Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses — which makes sense since Meta has already begun integrating AI into the smart glasses as well as making them compatible with Meta platforms like Instagram. The one Meta platform you won’t be able to use Meta AI is Threads.
Here’s what you can expect from Meta AI across your Instagram, Facebook, Messenger and WhatsApp accounts.
What is Meta AI?
Meta AI is Meta’s ChatGPT competitor. You can use Meta AI to generate text, answer questions, create images and more. Meta claims that with this new update, it is the “most intelligent AI assistant that you can freely use.” Right now, it’s powered by Llama 3, a text-based generator, but Meta hopes that one day its AI will be able to do more advanced things like reason and code.
