- Provide summaries of factual topics.
- Help you brainstorm ideas for projects or writing.
- Even generate creative text formats!

Accessing and using the new Whatsapp chatbot is easy. Here’s how:

- After that first click and you send your first message to the WhatsApp AI, you will have the chat listed as your regular contact. You can archive and unarchive it too.
- Also, you can easily access it through the search button at the top of your WhatsApp chats. It now functions as a search engine for your contacts, chats, and a conversation portal with WhatsApp Meta AI.
- To use it, simply type “Meta AI” followed by your question or request within a chat.
