Meta has launched a new feature on WhatsApp that allows users to create custom AI characters. This feature, currently in beta for Android, enables users to design chatbots by defining their personality and traits. Additionally, WhatsApp plans to replace the Communities tab with a dedicated section for AI chats, enhancing user engagement.
The AI character creation tool is similar to the existing Meta AI Studio on Instagram, making it easier for users to build and interact with chatbots. Users will receive suggestions for traits while creating their characters, and a refresh button will offer new ideas if needed. Although AI characters are not new to WhatsApp, this feature aims to simplify the creation process and make it more accessible.
