Meta AI reaches selected WhatsApp users via search bar and an integrated chatbot
According to new information from WABetaInfo, Meta extends limited testing of AI-powered chatbot to WhatsApp. This evidence is clear in the latest updates for iOS and Android from their respective app stores. Most of the users who already have access to this feature are in India and some countries around the world.. Remember that WhatsApp has only been updated for a few days to present an interesting new feature for sending photos.
What can be done with artificial intelligence in WhatsApp?
Soon you will be able to make requests to what we call Meta AI. In the search bar you can initially interact with the chatbot, in further improvements it is proposed that it be present both as an icon located at the top and as the chat itself .
The first evidence was seen in the app configured in English but It is still in the phase of collecting feedback to improve the experience. It should be noted that Meta AI integration is independent of privacy in WhatsApp conversations. Likewise, all searches are private and are only shared with the chatbot on purpose.
It should be noted that the chatbot now already manages search suggestions randomly. Meta indicates that there is no influence to make the user search for something regarding their personal tastes or confidential information.
The search bar will continue to work the same for WhatsApp conversations
Even though Meta AI will be present in the search bar This does not mean that I monitor your conversations.
Don’t forget to update your app to the latest version, you might be one of the lucky users to be part of the selected Meta AI testing group. Will WhatsApp improve in any way by including these types of artificial intelligence features?
