Earlier this fall, at Meta’s Connect event, Mark Zuckerberg revealed the company’s plans to bring AI features, such as a new AI assistant and AI stickers, to Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp . The latest development in this plan is the introduction of a shortcut feature in WhatsApp, allowing quick access to AI-powered chats directly from the Chats tab.WABetaInfo<\/a>a go-to source for WhatsApp news and updates, reported that with the installation of the latest WhatsApp beta update for Android 2.23.24.26, users can now see a new button in the Chats tab on above the icon to start new discussions.<\/p>\n Image credit \u2013 WABetaInfo<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n This button makes it easy to quickly open AI-powered chats, improving user convenience and streamlining the process. It should be noted that at present, AI-based chats are limited to a specific user group and the exact timeline for a broader release remains unknown. However, there are plans to expand this feature to a wider audience in the future.<\/p>\n Adding a dedicated shortcut allows users to access AI-powered chats directly from the Chats tab without navigating through the contact list. Placing the shortcut prominently in the Chats tab ensures that users are well-informed about this feature, encouraging the seamless integration of AI-assisted interactions into their regular use of the messaging app<\/a>.<\/p>\n Meta AI Assistant is designed for one-on-one conversations or participating in group chats. According to the tech giant, it can provide quick recommendations, inject humor with a good joke, settle debates in group chats, and serve as a knowledgeable companion to answer questions or share new information.<\/p>\n WhatsApp is one of the most used messaging apps in the world and regularly rolls out updates and new features. Recently, it rolled out a new privacy feature allowing users to hide their IP address, but that’s not all, as it also introduced voice chats for large groups on iOS and Android. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" WhatsApp is testing a shortcut for instant AI-powered chats\u060c Earlier this fall, at Meta’s Connect event, Mark Zuckerberg revealed the company’s plans to bring AI features, such as a new AI assistant and AI stickers, to Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp .
