Meta AI is making waves, with over 400 million people already using it, and 185 million engaging with it across Meta’s platforms each week. Now, Meta AI is leveling up with new updates that make interacting with the virtual assistant more engaging, intuitive, and fun.
One of the biggest upgrades is Meta AI’s new ability to speak. No more typing if you don’t want to—now, you can simply talk to Meta AI on Messenger, Facebook, WhatsApp, or Instagram, and it will talk back! Imagine getting advice, hearing a story, or chatting through your thoughts with voices from your favorite celebrities like Awkwafina, Dame Judi Dench, John Cena, Keegan-Michael Key, or Kristen Bell. This voice feature is being rolled out in the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand over the next month, allowing users to personalize their AI experience in a whole new way.
For users in the US, Meta AI can now see as well as speak. Share photos in chat, and Meta AI will not only tell you more about what’s in the image but also offer editing suggestions. Have a picture of a bird you can’t identify? Ask Meta AI! Beyond identification, the assistant can help you edit the photo—removing objects, adding accessories to the bird, or even transforming the background into something fantastical like outer space. The possibilities are endless!

Meta is also testing out exciting new features that bring AI directly into the Facebook and Instagram experience. From auto-dubbing and lip-syncing videos on Reels to delivering personalized content in your feeds, Meta AI is set to make these platforms more interactive and tailored to your preferences. Imagine AI-curated content based on your interests, allowing you to explore what matters most to you in real time.
And in an even more personal twist, Meta AI might create posts where you are the star, letting you share custom-generated content with your friends and followers.
Meta AI is more than just a tool—it’s becoming a seamless part of the way we interact with the digital world. Whether you’re talking to it, letting it enhance your social media, or creating customized images, Meta AI is all about making the online experience more engaging and fun.
