Meta has announced that its AI assistant 'Meta AI' is now accessible in India through WhatsApp, Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, and the meta.ai portal.
According to a statement by the social media giant, people can use Meta AI in feeds and chats across its apps to get things done, create content, and deep-dive into topics without having to leave the app they are using.
"Meta AI, one of the world's leading AI assistants, now arrives in India on WhatsApp, Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, and meta.ai. And it's built with Meta Llama 3, our most advanced LLM to date," Meta said announcing the rollout in India in English.
Meta first announced Meta AI at last year's Connect, and since April, it has been bringing the latest version of Meta AI built with Llama 3 to users worldwide.
"With our most powerful Large Language Model (LLM) under the hood, Meta AI is better than ever. We're excited to share our next-generation assistant with even more people and can't wait to see how it enhances people's lives," it said.
From asking Meta AI in WhatsApp group chat for restaurant recommendations to seeking ideas on places to stop on a road trip or even asking Meta AI on the web to create a multiple-choice test, Meta AI works in multiple ways for users.
"Moving into your first apartment? Ask Meta AI to 'imagine' the aesthetic you want so that you can create a mood board of AI-generated images for inspiration on your furniture shopping," the Meta announcement said citing examples.
They can utilise Meta AI while scrolling through Facebook feeds. If someone finds a post interesting, they can request more information directly from the post using Meta AI.
For example, if you come across a photo of the northern lights in Iceland, you can inquire about the best time of year to see the aurora borealis, by asking Meta AI.
Meta AI's imagine feature allows users to generate and share images by using the word "imagine" while interacting with Meta AI, either individually or in a group chat.
