Meta Introduces Its AI Assistant App, which Includes Voice Conversation and Discover Feed

IBL News | New York

Meta this week introduced the first version of its AI assistant built with Llama 4 and featuring voice conversation at the forefront.

It also features a Discover Feed that enables users to explore how others are utilizing AI.

Meta is the first AI company to add a social component to its chatbot. Across the industry, AI chatbots and social media are converging. Elon Musk’s X has already integrated closely with Grok. OpenAI, meanwhile, is planning to add a social feed to ChatGPT.

The new Meta AI app is connected to meta.ai and serves as a companion app for its Ray-Ban AI glasses.

“While speaking with AI using your voice isn’t new, we’ve improved our underlying model with Llama 4 to bring you responses that feel more personal and relevant, and more conversational in tone. And the app integrates with other Meta AI features like image generation and editing, which can now all be done through a voice or text conversation with your AI assistant,” explained the company.

Currently, people use Meta AI daily across WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, and Messenger.
