Accessing Meta AI on WhatsApp
To use Meta AI on WhatsApp, users have to open the app and either tap on the "Meta" icon in the bottom right or directly ask their question in the search bar.
This chatbot can create images from simple prompts or respond to random queries.
It can even give advice on different topics such as creating an itinerary for a trip, compiling a list of horror films, or planning a journal.

Meta AI's functionality in personal and group chats
Meta AI can be directly used in personal or group chats on WhatsApp.
For this, all you need to do is type "@Meta AI" in the chat and then enter the prompt for generating an image or seeking advice.
As WhatsApp says, Meta AI can only read and reply to messages where "@Meta AI" is mentioned, keeping personal messages end-to-end encrypted.
