Meta's AI products are now even smarter and more useful

Last year, we introduced you to AI experiences that help you get things done, learn, create, and connect with the things and people you care about. Since then we have continued to build Safety and responsibility in the foreground. Meta AI is on track to become the most used AI assistant in the world by the end of this year. More than 400 million people use Meta AI every month, and 185 million people use it every week across all of our products. Today at Connect we introduced new multimodal features thanks to our Llama 3.2 Models that make Meta AI and our other AI products more fun, useful and powerful.

Meta AI now has a voice

You can now speak with your voice Meta AI on Messenger, Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram DM, and it will reply to you out loud. Get answers to your questions, let Meta AI explain something that interests you, or listen to a joke to lighten the mood.

With the launch of this feature, you'll also be able to choose from various voice options for your assistant – including some well-known ones like the AI ​​voices of Awkwafina, Dame Judi Dench, John Cena, Keegan Michael Key and Kristen Bell.

Meta AI can now answer questions about your photos and edit them in new ways

You can now also share photos in your chats with Meta AI. Meta AI can understand what it sees and answer questions about it, allowing you to learn more about the world around you. This means you can share a photo of a flower you see on a hike and ask Meta AI what type of flower it is. Or you can share a photo of a new dish you want to cook and ask Meta AI for instructions on how to prepare it.

Need help editing your photos? Now you can send a picture in a chat with Meta AI and tell Meta AI what you want to add, remove or change in the photo – from changing your outfit to replacing the background with a rainbow.

And if you want to re-share a photo from the feed to your Instagram story, Meta AI's new background feature can take a look at your photo, understand what's in the image, and create a fun background for the story.

Testing meta AI translations for creator content

We're testing a meta-AI translation tool that automatically translates Reels' audio so more people can enjoy your content, even if you speak different languages. With automatic sync and lip sync, Meta AI simulates the speaker's voice in another language and lip syncs accordingly. We're starting with small tests on Instagram and Facebook, translating some creators' videos from Latin America and the US into English and Spanish, and plan to expand to more creators and languages.

More meta AI updates on Facebook, Instagram and Messenger

We're expanding Meta AI's Imagine capabilities so you can now imagine yourself as a superhero or something else directly in feeds, stories, and your Facebook profile pictures. You can then easily share your AI-generated images so your friends can see, react to, or imitate them. Meta AI can also suggest captions for your Stories on Facebook and Instagram.

You can already choose from a list of chat topics in Messenger and Instagram DMs, which change the background and text bubble color for everyone in the chat. Now you can use AI to create the perfect personalized theme for your chats. Simply tap “Topics” in your chat details to get started.

And we test new Meta AI-generated content in your Facebook and Instagram feeds, so you may see images from Meta AI created specifically for you (based on your interests or current trends). You can tap a suggested prompt to direct content in a new direction, or swipe to imagine new content in real time.

Advanced AI tools for businesses

We're extending our business AIs to thousands of businesses using click-to-message ads on WhatsApp and Messenger in English, so they can quickly set up business AIs that can communicate with their customers, provide support, and facilitate commerce . From answering common customer questions to discussing products and completing a purchase, these business AIs can help companies engage more customers and increase sales.

We continue to see strong adoption of our generative AI advertising tools: more than a million advertisers use the tools and 15 million ads were created with them last month. On average, advertising campaigns that leveraged Meta's generative AI ad features resulted in an 11% higher click-through rate and a 7.6% higher conversion rate compared to campaigns that didn't use these features.
