Meta AI expands with voice message feature in social media apps
The tech industry is witnessing intense competition among giants as they race to make their chatbots the preferred choice for users.
OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini currently dominate the scene. Hence, Meta aims to quickly catch up by integrating its Meta AI chatbot into popular social media platforms.
This strategic move aims to simplify user interaction with Meta AI across these widely used apps.
Voice Messages: A New Way to Chat with Meta AI
A recent development has unveiled a new feature in Meta AI, allowing users to send voice messages instead of typing lengthy prompts.
A screenshot shared in a publication offers a glimpse of this feature. It showcases the voice message option prominently within the Meta AI interface.
This suggests that the interaction with the chatbot could mimic regular user communication, making it more intuitive and user-friendly.
Multilingual Support Expected
Meta has not yet disclosed the specific languages the new voice message feature will support. However, it is expected that the company will prioritise multilingual capabilities.
It is particularly important given Meta’s vast user base in South Asian countries, where various languages are spoken.
Ensuring broad language support could significantly enhance the usability and appeal of this feature.
Addressing User Preferences
Understanding that many users may find typing long prompts for AI chatbots cumbersome, Meta has introduced the voice message feature in the latest WhatsApp beta for Android (version 2.24.16.10).
This update allows users to interact with Meta AI through voice, expanding beyond the previous text and video formats.
According to WeBetaInfo, this feature aims to cater to users who prefer more natural forms of communication.
Capabilities and Future Potential
Introducing voice messaging with Meta AI raises questions about the feature’s full capabilities.
It remains to be seen whether it will handle tasks like replying to messages and suggesting responses or if its functionality will be limited to voice support for web searches and recommendations.
If the latter, Meta AI could compete with existing voice assistants on smartphones.
Currently in Beta Testing
The voice message feature is currently available to a limited group of beta testers. However, broader access is expected to roll out soon.
As this feature develops post-launch, its impact on how users interact with Meta AI across platforms will be closely monitored.
