Meta has launched a new standalone app for its AI chatbot– Meta AI – which is designed to offer a more personal and interactive AI experience. This puts it in direct competition with chatbots like ChatGPT. The main goal of Meta AI is to make conversations feel natural, helpful, and tailored to you.



It can answer questions, give recommendations and help with daily tasks. Meta AI assistant provides more relevant answers by using the information you’ve chosen to share across Meta products, such as your profile details and the content you interact with. A standout feature of the app is voice interaction.

You can speak to Meta AI just like you would with a friend. The app includes a demo of its new full-duplex speech technology. “This technology will deliver a more natural voice experience trained on conversational dialogue, so the AI is generating voice directly instead of reading written responses.

It doesn’t have access to the web or real-time information, but we wanted to provide a glimpse into the future by letting people experiment with this,” Meta said in a blogpost. This voice feature is currently available in the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
