Meta is hoping these celebrity voices will attract more users to its AI assistant.
The company has already phased out its celebrity chatbot personas from the previous year’s launch and is exploring new ways to integrate AI into its main applications. One such feature is AI-generated translation for Reels, which will include automatic dubbing and lip-syncing.
A World of AI Possibilities
In addition to voice features, Meta AI is gaining new image capabilities. Users will soon be able to ask Meta AI to edit images within apps like Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp. This includes changing backgrounds, removing or adding objects, and altering elements like clothing.
Meta is also testing AI-generated content in the main feeds of Facebook and Instagram. These AI-generated images will be personalized based on users’ interests and past activities, offering a unique, curated experience.
All these new features coincide with the release of Meta’s latest Llama 3.2 model, which introduces vision capabilities, allowing it to excel in image recognition and visual understanding tasks.
