Meta recently added Meta AI to WhatsApp, an AI system that is similar to ChatGPT.
You can add Meta AI in your WhatsApp group chats to get advice or ask questions.
It’s an optional service that is provided and managed by Meta which uses Llama 2.
It also uses Emu for image generation along with the latest LLM research.
However, a lot of users reported that they are unable to access the AI on WhatsApp.
