Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg introduced the world to Meta AI, the company’s latest artificial intelligence-powered assistant, during the Meta Connect event on September 27.
This cutting-edge AI, dubbed Meta AI, is set to seamlessly integrate into popular social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp, while also making its way into the company’s mixed reality devices in the future.
Zuckerberg revealed that Meta AI harnesses the power of Meta’s expansive language model, Llama 2, and has been developed in collaboration with Microsoft Bing.
The objective behind this creation is to empower users with real-time access to internet-based information. Zuckerberg described Meta AI as “your basic assistant that you can talk to like a person.”
However, what sets Meta AI apart from its rival, ChatGPT, is its diverse approach. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all chatbot, Meta is working on tailored AI products for specific use cases.
As an illustration, Zuckerberg demonstrated how Meta AI could enhance group chats on Facebook Messenger, assisting users in organizing their travel plans.

Meta’s chatbots are not just informative; they are designed to be engaging and entertaining.
Meta also unveiled a set of entertainment-focused AI products, including chatbots modeled after approximately 30 celebrities, such as Paris Hilton, Snoop Dogg, and former NFL player Tom Brady.
According to Meta’s announcement, Meta AI became available on September 27 for a select group of users in the United States on Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
Additionally, it will be accessible to users of Meta’s new smart glasses, scheduled for release on October 17, and its latest Quest 3 VR device.
In a concurrent development, OpenAI declared that its ChatGPT would no longer be constrained by pre-2021 data. This update is immediately available for Plus and Enterprise users employing the GPT-4 model.
The previous limitation of ChatGPT’s knowledge base, which extended only up to 2021, is now a thing of the past, marking a significant advancement in AI capabilities.
