Meta's AI assistant: Empowering 400 million monthly users

Meta's AI assistant has 400 million monthly active users in a close ...

Two Meta employees have claimed that the Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Threads-parent Meta’s AI has at least 400 million monthly active users, and 40 million daily active users, reported The Information outlet. The figure from Meta comes shortly after an Axios report that said OpenAI’s ChatGPT had crossed 200 million weekly users. The Microsoft-backed company then confirmed this figure. This means OpenAI added around 100 million users in less than a year. Meta has taken a different approach by releasing open-source models that researchers can access and customize themselves.

Meanwhile, Meta AI can be used for text-based assistance or image generation through most of Meta’s apps. Both regulators and scientists are concerned about the antitrust implications as well as the safety risks of the AI models being rapidly released by competing Big Tech giants.
