Who is this app adding value for? How is it differentiated?
The models are not sota, the feature set is no stronger than comparable apps, the privacy situation is as expected.
Not seeing it.
I don't understand why. Why would I want a Facebook AI assistant? I dont understand why its in messenger and WhatsApp either?
It's astonishing how much community goodwill and excitement there was for llama when it first came out, and how much it has plummeted since then.
Partly the sheen has worn off, and of course there are other interesting "open source" llm offerings now, but I don't think it can be overstated how much Meta is just a toxic brand.
Threads had a very similar arc.
This might be interesting if it pulled data from Meta properties (e.g. the Instagram accounts I am following) in order to personally contextualize its responses.
Meta has terrible "separation of concerns" within their apps. I just downloaded Messenger the other day and realized that they now also show you your feed within messenger. Why?? If i wanted to see my feed I would have downloaded the Facebook app. Same with WhatsApp and Instagram trying to cram down AI.
My theory is you have these app "fiefdoms" that are run by different product managers and all of them are trying to steal users from the other product to show that their product is driving growth. So you end up with 10 apps that implement 90% of the same features.
Interesting that they tie the glasses so into this new app, while all AI functionality of the glasses still being disabled in the EU.
No thanks. I am not using anything Zuck made with clear intent of screwing it up down the road.
They added some AI slip chat to their WhatsApp client that seems to have context info about my chats and I can't opt out of that. It's also got a permanent icon hovering at the bottom right which I tend to hit while scrolling through contacts.
They've become the parody of how to do AI tools badly. It's disgusting.
You can absolutely get the voice in the iOS app to John Cena and then tell it to pretend to be Peacemaker from the TV show and have a chat about how great Eagly is.
Meta projects are increasingly lame, and Yann Lecun hasn't had a single useful idea for years now
Why do the AI web apps not have voice mode?
Does this mean they'll remove the meta ai stuff from whatsapp?
This is the same model that Meta declared was "too liberal" and had to specifically fine tune it with align with its Republican masters?
No thanks.

Classic Meta playbook, nothing innovative to build so let's just release a copy of ChatGPT
Great, now, can you get it the f* out of Whatsapp, please?
Imagine still using Meta products in 2025.
Why would I want my AI App to be by the privacy nightmare, cambridge analytica people?
AI is becoming more and more of a commodity. What does the FB one offer to make up for its terrible reputation?
who is using Llama 4 ?
I'll be curious to see if this has legs.
BEWARE! On iOS, the app will have access to a five-page-long list of data, including your browsing history, purchase history, phone number, physical address, precise location, photos, videos, and more. I almost wish they’d stop f’ing around with advertising and make it a paid subscription app. I might even subscribe to it then (like I have with SuperGrok and ChatGPT Plus).
Maybe their audience is people who can’t be bothered or can’t afford it.
