Meta has launched a standalone AI app to compete with ChatGPT, leveraging user data from Facebook and Instagram to offer personalized experiences. The app includes a Discover feed for sharing AI interactions, emphasizing social connectivity. This move highlights Meta's ambition to integrate AI innovations with its hardware like Ray-Ban smart glasses.
Meanwhile, OpenAI is advancing ChatGPT's capabilities by incorporating a new shopping feature, which offers personalized product recommendations. This enhancement is part of OpenAI's strategy to differentiate its conversational search model from traditional search engines, presenting a challenge to platforms like Google.
Amidst these developments, Meta is also focusing on its AI roadmap with the hosting of its first LlamaCon AI developer conference. The event aims to attract developers to its Llama AI models, crucial as the company faces criticism over its latest model's performance. As competition intensifies, Meta and OpenAI are keen on refining their AI frameworks to maintain a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving tech landscape.
