TechFlow news — Meta, the parent company of Facebook, plans to launch an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot with human-like personalities focused on user engagement, according to The Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter. A prototype of the chatbot is currently under development, and the final product will be capable of having more human-like conversations with users. These chatbots, which will display distinct personalities, are expected to be released as early as next month.
According to insiders, Meta employees refer to these chatbots as "characters," each featuring a unique persona. One person familiar with the plan said Meta has already developed a bot that speaks like former U.S. President Abraham Lincoln, and another that offers travel advice in the manner of a surfer.
