Meta AI Expands to India, Integrates with Social Platforms and Offers Free Web Access
Meta expands AI presence in India, integrating Meta AI with social platforms and offering free web access with Facebook login.

Meta has significantly expanded its AI presence in India, integrating its generative AI assistant, Meta AI, into popular social media platforms WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger. In addition, the company has launched a standalone website (Meta.ai) allowing users to access the AI tool directly from any web browser at no cost.

Key Features and Functionalities

  • Llama 3 Powered: Meta AI is powered by the Llama 3 model, enabling it to generate text, images, and even short animated clips from AI-generated images.
  • Real-time Image Generation Preview: Users can see their image creations in real time, adding to the interactive experience.
  • Versatile Applications: Similar to other generative AI tools, Meta AI can draft emails, essays, answer questions, and provide up-to-date information by accessing the latest web data.
  • Free Access: Unlike some competitors, Meta AI is currently free for all users, with no limitations on features or usage.
  • Facebook Account Requirement for Web Version: Accessing Meta AI through the website requires a Facebook account.

Although Meta AI is free, accessing the web version requires a Facebook account, a potential barrier for non-Facebook users. Powered by Llama 3, Meta AI offers text and image generation capabilities, including the ability to transform AI-generated images into customizable animated clips.

Similar to other generative AI tools, Meta AI can draft emails, essays, and answer a wide range of questions. Its access to the latest web information reportedly enables it to provide relevant and up-to-date results. Unlike some competitors, Meta AI offers all features for free, without any limitations or a paid version.

Accessing the web version is straightforward: users simply visit Meta.ai and log in with their Facebook credentials. The AI assistant then suggests prompts or allows users to type their queries directly. Conversations are saved for future reference, with an option to delete specific interactions. A temporary chat feature similar to OpenAI’s ChatGPT is not currently available.

Meta’s expansion in India represents a significant development in the AI landscape, potentially impacting how users interact with and utilize AI tools on social media and beyond.
