After the success of Microsoft and OpenAI with ChatGPT and Google with Bard, Meta is now building its own AI to use in its products such as WhatsApp, Messenger and Instagram. Artificial Intelligence has been the biggest trend in current times, and it is clear that Mark Zuckerberg would not be left behind in this. Below check the ChatGPT created by Meta.

This past week, Meta, owner of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, made an announcement that it is working on a generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) that will be called LLaMA, with goals similar to those from ChatGPT.
But now Meta wants to go further in the project: a new area of AI projects was created especially to develop the technology for Facebook products, in addition, development is being done by Mark Zuckerberg, the president of company.
The sector responsible for creating the LLaMA will be led by Ahmad Al-Dahle, the vice president of AI at Facebook, which will be overseen by the company's longtime engineer and chief product officer, Chris Cox.
In addition, in the announcement of the new project, Meta informed:
“Over the past year, [artificial intelligence] language models have shown a new ability to generate creative texts, solve mathematical theorems, predict protein structures, read and answer questions, and more. They are a clear example of the potential benefits that artificial intelligence can bring to billions of people.”
This investment by Meta in new AI technologies, in fact, is a response to the high success that generative models are having in recent months.
OpenAI, owner of ChatGPT, closed a billionaire partnership with Microsoft to work on the AI tool. Until then, the only tech giant close to the competition was Google, which also has its version of generative AI, which is Bard.
Meta, in recent years, was focused on the metaverse, but now the company is trying to enter the sector of generative AIs, with the development of LLaMA.
Mark Zuckerberg said the following:
“In the short term, we will focus on building creative and expressive tools. In the long term, we will focus on developing AI people who can help people in many ways.”
The president of Meta himself, Mark Zuckerberg, responded to this question on their social media:
“We are exploring experiences with text (such as WhatsApp and Messenger conversations), with images (such as creative Instagram filters and ad formats), with video and other experiences multimodal. We have a lot of groundwork to do before we get to the truly futuristic experiences, but I'm excited about all the new things we'll build along the way.”
