New WhatsApp feature to simplify user interaction with Meta AI
Meta's instant-messaging app promises to make usage of its chatbot less time-consuming with new feature
December 11, 2024
WhatsApp is working on a new feature that will allow users to forward messages and media directly to Meta AI, aiming to streamline the sharing experience and improve user convenience.
The popular Meta-owned instant-messaging app's new feature, which is set to be rolled out in an upcoming update, is currently accessible for beta testers in the latest WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.26.8 update, available on the Google Play Store, WABetaInfo reported.
The upcoming feature will eliminate the need for users to manually copy and paste messages into their conversations with Meta AI. Instead, users will enjoy the convenience of forwarding content directly to Meta AI chatbot.
It is important to note that WhatsApp will provide an option to add more context to the forwarded content specifically for Meta AI during the forwarding process.
Users will be prompted to input a specific question or query they wish to ask Meta AI after forwarding the content, allowing the chatbot to deliver more precise and personalised responses.
If no additional input is provided, Meta AI will simply analyse the forwarded content as it is.
Additionally, this feature will eliminate the need to save images and videos locally before sending them to Meta AI, allowing users to simply forward the content directly.
This way, users will save time and require less effort to interact effectively with Meta AI.
The new feature is under development and it will be available in a future update.
