Artificial intelligence is everywhere, and it continues to penetrate every aspect of our lives. Meta has introduced another innovation that meets the demands of the age: Artificial intelligence chatbots. Trying them out is also very easy. What’s more, you don’t even need to download anything specific for artificial intelligence to try it out. In fact, you can do this directly through Instagram. Meta will offer this feature to its platforms. You can now use artificial intelligence chatbots on Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger. Here are the details…
Meta is introducing artificial intelligence chatbot feature to its own platforms!
Meta hosted the Meta Connect 2023 event last month. The development that made headlines during this event was the artificial intelligence chatbot. The company released all 28 bots for use. These bots were developed using the company’s Llama 2 open-source large language model (LLM). Additionally, they can connect to the internet through Bing to provide up-to-date answers to your questions.
The 28 chatbots each have their unique personalities. Meta allows you to chat with different bots for different conversations. For example, you can talk to a travel expert when looking for tips for an upcoming trip. Or, if you’re thinking about trying something new for dinner, you can chat with a cooking expert.
Fifteen of these chatbots are actually based on celebrities. Meta paid to have these AI chatbots resemble and provide an interesting experience with actors, chefs, athletes, and personalities. The bots currently use text only. However, it’s not possible to have a real-life meeting with a celebrity. The idea here is to have a conversation with the celebrity via messaging.
Here’s the full list of Meta’s AI bots you can chat with:
- Lorena (Padma Lakshmi): Travel expert

Instead of selecting one of your contacts, choose AI Chat. When you tap Continue in the pop-up window, you’ll encounter the “Chat with AI” window. Here, you can select from all the AI characters for chatting, including Meta’s AI assistant.
