Yes, but they’ve definitely made a big contribution to AI / LLMs. I just don’t understand how they plan on monetizing upon things, apart from “better AI integration inside their own products”.

Are they planning to launch a ChatGPT competitor?

It seems like this acquisition is focused on technology, but what’s the product vision?



Their already existing chat app is what “ai” means to my normie friends.


They already have a chatgpt competitor, you can talk to llama in all the facebook apps, they're just clearly inferior.


Where can I talk to llama in their apps? Serious question.


Also standalone: https://www.meta.ai/ and https://about.fb.com/news/2025/04/introducing-meta-ai-app-ne...


I use Messenger but not Facebook. There's a big "Ask Meta AI or Search" bar at the top of the app's main page.


Whatsapp you can tag @meta ai in any chat, have a separate chat with meta ai, forward messages to the meta ai chat for fact checks, etc.
