Meta is making its AI chatbot more like an assistant
The Verge 2 months ago 16
Meta is upgrading its AI chatbot with new features including calendar integration for event planning, daily briefings, and steerable in-depth research to compete with ChatGPT and Claude. The update uses Meta's newly released Llama 3.1 model, which expands the chatbot beyond basic question-answering and image generation. These productivity features position Meta AI as a personal assistant rather than just a conversational tool, aligning with CEO Mark Zuckerberg's vision of personal superintelligence.
