Meta just dropped its own stand-alone AI app — and it’s coming straight for ChatGPT 👀

After plugging Meta AI into WhatsApp, IG, Messenger, and Facebook, Zuck & Co. are going all-in: now there's a dedicated app that lets you chat with Meta AI directly, à la ChatGPT

So what’s the twist? Meta’s secret weapon is you. It already knows your friends, your interests, your vibe — all thanks to the data you’ve shared across its platforms. That means Meta AI isn’t just smart, it’s personalized. From recommending trips to skipping the cheese if you’re lactose-intolerant — it remembers what matters

And yep, there's a Discover feed too. Want to ask the AI to describe you in emojis and share it with your friends? Go for it (but only if you want to)

But remember — all that data still feeds the ad machine. It’s Meta, after all

AI is getting social — and Meta’s betting big on being the most you-aware chatbot on the block 💬
