WhatsApp is set to enhance its Meta AI chatbot by adding voice support, making it easier for users to interact with the AI. Currently, the chatbot helps with creating AI-generated images and summarizing articles through text, but soon, it will also handle voice commands.
Voice Support Coming Soon
WhatsApp is testing this new voice feature with a few Android and iOS users in its beta version. The feature was recently spotted by WaBetaInfo. It will allow users to activate the AI chatbot using a wake word, similar to how Google Assistant or Siri are activated.
This update will allow users to ask the Meta AI questions or get responses through voice, not just text. This change is expected to make the AI chatbot more accessible and user-friendly.
Meta’s Goals with the Update
Meta aims to use WhatsApp’s large user base to expand the reach of its AI chatbot. This will help in improving and training the AI models more efficiently. The update will also introduce a feature called AI Studio, which will let users edit their AI-generated images directly within WhatsApp.
Overall, this addition will make it simpler for users to interact with the AI and access its features, all within the familiar WhatsApp environment.
