To create smooth conversational interactions, Meta AI uses a bespoke model derived from Llama 2, a generative text model.
Furthermore, Meta has integrated real-time information retrieval into text-based conversations through a partnership with Microsoft's Bing.
Meta AI is currently available in the U.S., but Meta assures users that it will be useful in a wide range of situations, including offering suggestions, delivering entertainment, resolving disputes, and imparting knowledge.

How does it work?
Users can ask questions or request images in the Meta AI inbox when they open WhatsApp by tapping the Meta AI icon in the bottom right corner.
Whether through a search bar or a conversation, Meta AI recommends topics that are uninfluenced by user details and are generated consistently.
You can still use the search bar to find chats, messages, media, and contacts within the app.
Meta AI is not required for users to search within their conversations for particular messages, media, or contacts with the same ease and privacy they've always enjoyed.
Meta AI was announced alongside 28 additional AI assistants and collaborations with prominent figures from sports, entertainment, and internet culture.
Meta also introduced AI stickers for WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram, and Facebook Stories, enabling users to communicate visually with personalized stickers generated from text input.
