In this Blog, we discuss all about what makes Meta AI unique, how it compares to other chatbot apps, and what implications it may have for platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

What is the Meta AI App?

The underlying technology of the Meta AI app is Llama 4. It is the company’s most advanced, open AI model that was introduced in April this year. According to Meta, Llama 4 has been trained on “large amounts of unlabeled text, image, and video data” to give them “broad visual understanding.”

The Meta AI app is Meta’s (formerly Facebook’s) proprietary artificial intelligence assistant. It is designed to function as a smart, intuitive AI chatbot capable of handling complex queries, providing real-time recommendations, generating content, and integrating seamlessly into Meta’s suite of apps.

Built on Meta’s LLaMA (Large Language Model Meta AI) architecture, the app is a part of conversational AI throughout its social platforms. Whether you’re messaging a friend on WhatsApp or scrolling your Instagram feed, Meta AI is designed to assist, respond, and engage in real-time.

How is it Different from Other AI Chatbot Apps?

Meta’s AI assistant within the new app is billed to be more personalised to users who link their Facebook and Instagram profiles to the Accounts Center.

“You can tell Meta AI to remember certain things about you (like that you love to travel and learn new languages), and it can also pick up important details based on context,” the company said.

Unlike standalone chatbots like ChatGPT or Claude, Meta AI is embedded directly into apps like Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger. This integration allows it to assist users as they browse, comment, or chat — making it feel more like a helpful companion than a separate tool.

“Your Meta AI assistant also delivers more relevant answers to your questions by drawing on information you’ve already chosen to share on Meta products, like your profile, and content you like or engage with,” it added. These personalised responses by Meta AI are currently only available for users in the US and Canada.

What Does the Meta AI App Offer Beyond Chat?

Besides text conversations, Meta’s AI assistant can also be prompted with voice inputs. “Voice is the most intuitive way to interact with Meta AI, and the Meta AI app is designed to help you seamlessly start a conversation with the touch of a button – even if you’re multitasking or on-the-go,” it said.

The app screen displays a visible icon when the microphone is in use. Those who prefer to use voice mode enabled by default need to toggle the Ready To Talk feature on within the app’s settings.

“We’ve also included a voice demo built with full-duplex speech technology, that you can toggle on and off to test,” Meta said. However, the voice-enabled version of the AI assistant does not currently have access to the web or real-time information. It is available for users in the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand to start.

How Does Meta AI Work Across Devices?

While interacting with Meta AI, users will be able to switch over from their smart glasses to the app.“You’ll be able to start a conversation on your glasses, then access it in your history tab from the app or web to pick up where you left off,” Meta said.

However, carrying over an AI interaction from the app to the glasses is not possible.

Meta also said its View companion app developed for owners of its Ray-Ban smart glasses will no longer be available. Instead, the features are being folded into the new AI app.Meta said it is also testing an AI-based document editor that can be used to generate documents with text and images. These files can be exported as PDFs as well. It is also working on a new capability that lets Meta AI analyse and understand documents.

How Will AI Impact Social Media?

According to the Meta chief, the future of social media will be much more interactive than what it is today.

“You’ll be scrolling through your feed, and there will be content that maybe looks like a Reel to start, but you can talk to it, or interact with it, and it talks back, or it changes what it’s doing. Or you can jump into it like a gamfe and interact with it. That’s all going to be AI,” he told podcaster Dwarkesh Patel.

Final Thoughts

The Meta AI App significantly increase the user experience on social media. With powerful real-time assistance, deep integration across Meta’s apps, and cross-device syncing it’s making more reliable digital interactions.

Whether you’re a content creator, casual scroller, or business owner, Meta AI is changing the way you engage with social platforms. As AI continues to evolve, so too will the platforms we rely on every day.
