META UNVEILS META AI, POWERED BY LLAMA 3 MODEL

In a major announcement, Meta has unveiled its latest AI assistant, built using the company's advanced Llama 3 language model. The new Meta AI assistant is now available globally across Meta's suite of apps, including Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger.

The assistant boasts significant improvements in intelligence, speed, and functionality compared to previous versions. Users can leverage Meta AI to help with a wide range of tasks, from trip planning and creative projects to homework help and professional communication.

A key feature of the new assistant is its seamless integration across Meta's apps, allowing users to access its capabilities directly within the apps they already use. This includes the ability to search the web, get recommendations, and generate images - all without leaving the app.

Meta is also rolling out the Meta AI web experience at meta.ai, enabling users to access the assistant's full suite of features from any device. The company touts the assistant's "smarter, faster and more fun" capabilities thanks to the latest advancements in the Llama 3 language model.

With the global expansion to over a dozen countries outside the US, Meta is positioning its AI assistant as a powerful productivity and creativity tool for users around the world. The company promises continued enhancements and new features in the weeks and months ahead.
