But for the average person, what can it do that other tools likeChatGPT,DALL-E, andGoogle Geminicant?

Heres where you might want to use Meta AI over the competition.

The process is pretty simple.

First, ask the chatbot to generate your image.

Then, tell it to animate the image to turn it into a GIF.

In my testing, telling it to make a GIF straight from the start hasnt worked.

The results, though, havent been foolproof for me.

(I asked the AI to make a GIF of him blowing the candles out.)

On its own, its a dazzling gimmick.

Meta AI, on the other hand, has access to both Google and Bing.

This means you might use Meta AI to answer questions requiring it to access current information.

You could even ask it to compile information, giving commands like How isDragons Dogma 2reviewing?

or What is the best movie to see this weekend?

Meta isnt alone in this ability, since Google Gemini also has live internet access.

Where Metas chatbot differs is that it isnt limited to Google Search, and that it handles sources differently.

Integration is different depending on each appin Messenger and WhatsApp, Meta AI will show up as a contact.

In Instagram, itll show up in the search bar.

And in Facebook, it will show up in the search bar and in your feed.

For the most part, this means integration is fairly negligible outside of the latter two apps.

Regular searches will still populate, and theyll instead have a magnifying glass next to them.

For feed integration in Facebook, its a bit more robust.
