Meta rolls out an updated AI assistant, built with the long-awaited Llama 3


Meta has begun rolling out its new AI assistant, which was built using the long-awaited Llama 3 LLM. You can use Meta AI on Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Messenger, with support for the Quest platform coming soon.

Meta AI, however, has expanded into just about every nook and cranny throughout the company’s entire portfolio, after a test run with Instagram DMs last week. AI has become one of Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg's pet projects, along with raising really expensive cattle for beef in a secluded Hawaiian compound, but the company’s still playing catch up to OpenAI and, to a lesser extent, Google. Meta’s Llama 2 never really wowed users, due to a limited feature set, so maybe this new version of the AI assistant will catch lightning in a bottle.
