Meta is finally launching artificial intelligence or AI -based chatboys in Europe. About a year after the feature is launched in the United States, meta AI will be launched in six countries in Europe and 20 foreign regions. European citizens can use the feature through WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram and Messenger. However, it will have a text -based chat feature.
Meta AI was launched in the United States in 2021. However, under the direction of Privacy Watchdog in Ireland, Meta stopped the feature test in Europe. Meanwhile, Meta has postponed the unveiling of the multimodal AI model Lama in the European Union due to regulatory concerns.
Now Meta says European users can only use text -based chatboat assistants. It will help by highlighting various ideas, planning travel or answering specific questions. It will also collect information from the Internet. European users can see some special content on Instagram. However, you cannot answer the content of a picture or do anything like making and editing pictures. In addition, European users are not trained in data.
“We have been coming up with a limited service after various discussions with European regulators for almost a year,” said Eli Hitrick, a spokesman for Meta. It was not trained using European users 'data.'
“We will continue to work jointly with the regulators, so that Europe's users can be properly familiar with the Mater AI innovations,” Eli Hitric also said.
Last November, Meta launched some AI features in Europe with its ray-ban smart glasses. However, with these glasses, users cannot yet question any of Meta AI pictures. Regarding the other AI features of Meta in the European market, the company has said that they will improve these benefits in the future and bring full versions to Europe.
Meanwhile, Apple has not even launched some AI feature in the European Union to respect the Digital Markets Act (DMA) concerns and to respect the rules related to interaction. Meta has not launched the AI feature in Brazil again. This is because the government has expressed concern over model training with users' data. The Brazilian government believes that the citizens of the country will disrupt the privacy.
