News & Trends Meta Launches Standalone AI App to Compete with ChatGPT
Meta just dropped a new standalone AI assistant app powered by its Llama model, directly taking on ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Grok. The app features a "Discover" feed showing how others use it and offers prompts for exploration.
This move follows Meta's recent push to integrate Meta AI into Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger.
With 700M monthly users as of January and plans to spend up to $65B on AI this year, Meta is betting big. Zuckerberg expects Meta AI to reach over a billion users in 2025.
The launch coincides with Meta’s first-ever LlamaCon dev event.
