> In the short term, we'll focus on building creative and expressive tools. Over the longer term, we'll focus on developing AI personas that can help people in a variety of ways. We're exploring experiences with text (like chat in WhatsApp and Messenger), with images (like creative Instagram filters and ad formats), and with video and multi-modal experiences.
I guess that makes sense. It works great with their metaverse vision (and might give it the USP it desperately needs), while bringing short-term benefits as well. I wonder what they mean by text in WhatsApp though? A chatbot for companies to paritally automate all the business that now happens over WhatsApp, or a text-mode Alexa, kind of like XiaoBing (which far predates the current GPT craze, but is now much cheaper to create)?
