WhatsApp has said that it is testing its large language model-powered chatbot Meta AI, with users in India and some other markets, in an effort to tap the massive user base to up its artificial intelligence (AI) offerings.
Meta AI is part of the social networking giant s big push into generative AI as it jostles to be a prominent player in the artificial intelligence arms race with tech giants such as Google, Microsoft and upstarts such as OpenAI
Meta introduced Meta AI at Meta Connect 2023, showcasing its AI-powered features, image generation tool, and integration with Microsoft s Bing. Meta promises versatile assistance, with plans for global availability.
The tech giant launched Meta AI, a general-purpose chatbot that can generate photorealistic images from text prompts and answer user queries within chats in September last year.
