Meta launches its chatbots inspired by celebrities: those are the celebrities who lend their “personality”

The chatbot war is still very much alive, as Meta has shown by announcing new developments in this sector. The company owned by Mark Zuckerberg will launch chatbots with different personalities for its Facebook Messenger service.

As announced by the owner of WhatsApp, Instagram and many other platforms, these chatbots will specialize in certain topics, such as vacations or cooking tips, in addition to being much more personalized than what has been seen so far. .

Under the name Meta AI, Messenger users will be able to use chatbots to ask questions about certain topics or know how to resolve some discussions they have with other users, although Zuckerberg acknowledges that there are still “limitations” to this technology.

One of the most curious details of these chatbots is that different celebrities have volunteered to give their voice and personality to the AI, including Snoop Dogg, Kendall Jenner and Tom Brady, the biggest American football star who will play a “funny athlete.” .

“This is not going to just consist of answering questions. “It's about entertainment,” Zuckerberg explained in his presentation, where he has begun a new era of chatbots with Meta's commitment to more personalized and less robotic technology.

From the latest generation technology sector, Meta AI -based on the Llama 2 language model- is seen as Zuckerberg's answer to ChatGPT in this race to become the hegemonic artificial intelligence among the public.
