User interactions with Meta AI chatbot in WhatsApp set to get quicker

WhatsApp is developing a new feature to enhance user's experience with Meta AI by allowing them to forward messages and media to the chatbot directly.

Meta's popular instant-messaging app's innovative feature, which is set to be rolled out in an upcoming update, aims to simplify the sharing process by eliminating the need for manual copying and pasting of content into convesations with Meta AI, WABetaInfo reported.

Instead, users will enjoy the convenience of forwarding content directly to Meta AI chatbot.

Users will have the added benefit of providing additional context for the forwarded messages during the process. Meta AI will prompt users to enter a specific question or query they wish to ask the chatbot after forwarding the content. 

The chatbot will better understand intent and offer relevant information or assistance by tailoring its analysis based on the additional input provided by users.

If no additional input is provided, Meta AI will simply analyse the forwarded content as it is.

Additionally, this feature will eliminate the need to save images and videos locally before sending them to Meta AI, allowing users to simply forward the content directly.

This way, users will save time and require less effort to interact effectively with Meta AI.

The new feature is under development and it will be available in a future update. However, it is currently accessible for beta testers in the latest WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.26.8 update, available on the Google Play Store.
