Meet Meta AI, a new AI assistant that will be available on WhatsApp, Messenger and Instagram

At Meta Connect 2023, Meta introduced Meta AI, a new AI assistant that will be available on WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram and more.

As expected, Meta AI is powered by a custom model based on Llama 2 and Meta’s latest large language model (LLM) research. To offer real-time information during text chats, Meta has partnered with Microsoft Bing. In addition, Meta AI can also do image generation.

You can access Meta AI anytime within Meta’s messaging apps. For example, you can type “@MetaAI /imagine” followed by a descriptive text prompt like “create a button badge with a hiker and redwood trees,” and it will create a digital merit badge in the chat.

Meta also revealed that Meta AI will be coming soon to Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses and Quest 3.

Along with Meta AI, Meta announced 28 more AIs that you can message on WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram. These AIs are a new cast of characters, find the details below.
