2 min read
Meta, the parent company of Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram, has extended its Meta AI service to 12 countries beyond the United States, including Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa, Canada, and Australia.
This expansion, initially offered in English, aims to enrich user experiences within these popular apps by integrating new creative, expressive, and productivity tools seamlessly.
According to a blog post by Meta on Thursday, Meta AI, introduced during last year’s Connect event, has evolved into a versatile tool ingrained in users’ daily routines.
Powered by Meta Llama 3 technology, Meta AI facilitates tasks, knowledge acquisition, creativity, and social connections effortlessly.
“We’re introducing Meta AI in English to over a dozen countries beyond the US. Users in Australia, Canada, Ghana, Jamaica, Malawi, New Zealand, Nigeria, Pakistan, Singapore, South Africa, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe can now experience Meta AI, and we’re just getting started,” Meta stated.
Meta claims that its enhanced AI, now the most intelligent free assistant available, is accessible across its apps in more countries, offering users real-time information without exiting the app.
Mark Zuckerberg, Meta’s founder, expressed excitement about expanding Meta AI’s reach and its integration into familiar apps, providing real-time information seamlessly through search integration.
“By incorporating our new Llama 3 AI model and introducing unique creation features like photo animation, Meta AI generates high-quality images rapidly, updating them in real-time as users type and even creating playback videos of the creation process,” Zuckerberg added.
While the emergence of AI has brought significant advancements, concerns linger regarding transparency, bias, privacy, ethics, security, and the long-term implications of developing artificial general intelligence surpassing human capabilities.
