Imagine having an AI Assistant version of yourself to better support your customers and prospects. Would this be something you
re interested in?
Meta just announced a number of AI tools. Some are just for fun. Some could definitely help businesses of all sizes.
The ability to make your own AI Assistant isn
t that far away, my friends. Personally, I
m VERY excited about the potentials here. Yes, there can and will be downsides. But surely we can help lead the way in best practices. Meta is certainly trying to. We
ll see.
For the most part, AI chatbots such as ChatGPT are very *impersonal.* You type in a prompt and it spits out content.
Now, with Meta
s AI Assistants, that very much look and act like a virtual person, you can create a more human-like interaction and experience for your audience. Of course, being clear and transparent who people are talking to is very important.
Meta has had a TURBOCHARGED focus on AI this past year and they
ve been talking about the development of these AI Assistants. Now you know why there
s been such a push for creating and using your avatar across all Meta properties!! Well, I suppose in avatar-land, I
ll never age. haha!
Zuckerberg stated in a recent interview with The Verge, "...you get to this point where there’s going to be 100 million AIs just helping businesses sell things. Then you get the creator version of that, where, like every creator is going to want an AI assistant, something that can help them build their community. People are going to really want to interact with it; there’s just way more demand to interact with creators."

Meta introduced AI studio today, the platform that supports the creation of AIs. Developers will be able to build third-party AIs for Meta
s messaging services with their APIs in the coming weeks, starting on Messenger then expanding to WhatsApp.
❝Businesses will also be able to create AIs that reflect their brand’s values and improve customer service experiences. From small businesses looking to scale to large brands wanting to enhance communications, AIs can help businesses engage with their customers across our apps. We’re launching this in alpha and will scale it further next year.❞
Here
s the rundown of Mark Zuckerberg
s announcements at the Meta Connect event earlier today:
Meta AI - a new conversational chatbot assistant. Available in Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp starting today in the U.S. Includes access to the *live* internet via Meta
s partnership with Microsoft
s Bing. So this will better assist the chatbot to answer your questions. (Let
s hope!)
AI Personalities - Meta has partnered with numerous celebrities — such as Snoop Dog, Tom Brady, Paris Hilton, Mr. Beast, and more — to create unique AI-powered chat experiences that you can interact with. Interests cover travel, fitness, fashion, crafting and many more. For now, there are 28 in total and each one has their own Facebook and Instagram account, managed by Meta.
Image Generation & Editing - using the Meta AI chatbot, you can create unique custom stickers with and for your friends, as well as create new images, and edit images by adding different FX and backgrounds. [Meta is experimenting with forms of visible and invisible markers to make it more transparent when an image is created by AI.]
Plus, new Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses that can take calls, play music, and livestream your view from your face.
Includes access to the Meta AI chatbot. [A decade after Google Glass famously flopped, Meta is betting that consumers are now ready for smart glasses]. And, the biggest news for some folks, is Meta Quest 3 - Meta
s new mixed reality headset.
