What is Meta AI?

Meta AI is an advanced generative chatbot developed by Meta, the parent company of WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram. It is powered by the Llama 3 language model. The chatbot is built to assist users in various ways, including providing answers to questions, creating text-based content, generating images and even assisting with tasks like summarising articles or translating text.

Currently, Meta AI supports English and is accessible in several countries, including India, the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada, Singapore and others. The rollout is being implemented gradually, meaning it may still need to be available to all users across the globe.

Meta AI is integrated seamlessly into WhatsApp, making it accessible for both personal and group interactions. Its capabilities are for increasing productivity and creativity. And it also ensures data privacy by processing only the messages specifically addressed to the bot.
