Meta AI: Your Ultimate Chat Companion for Anything and Everything

“Ask Meta AI anything…”

Across its platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, Meta has introduced an AI-powered chatbot for everyday use. The highly anticipated Meta AI, unveiled at the company's Connect event last September and launched this week for widespread use, is Meta's response to the growing demand for intelligent, user-friendly support across social media platforms.

In true AI fashion, Meta AI can understand and respond to your queries in natural language, offering a spectrum of services—from suggesting doable at-home workouts and romance poetry tips to recapping classic novels in a sentence and even curating steak dinner Reels for your viewing consumption (they're not as random as you think!).

And because we are such a visual generation, Meta AI boasts image generation capabilities as well. Powered by Emu, this feature works to generate high-quality visuals directly within chat—for free. They can even be animated into gifs, enabling us all to step up our meme text game big-time! To align with Meta's commitment to transparency and ethical AI use, all images and gifs generated by Meta AI will carry an “Imagined with AI” watermark. That way users can distinguish between AI-generated and authentic content.

While Meta AI currently operates exclusively in English, the feature is available in more than a dozen countries, including South Africa, Australia, and Canada.
