In a meeting on Thursday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg told employees about the company's artificial intelligence efforts and their relation to the metaverse.
At the meeting on Thursday, Zuckerberg and other Meta executives detailed some of the company's work incorporating generative AI models into the metaverse, the nascent virtual world that Meta is sinking billions of dollars into every quarter to try and make a reality. In particular, they talked about how AI can help create the 3D visuals for the metaverse.
Meta said it's giving employees access to several internal generative AI tools to help develop prototypes, and the company is hosting a hackathon for workers to show off their AI projects. The company also plans to debut a service for Instagram users that will let them modify photos via text prompts and share them in the app's Stories feature.
Additionally, Meta plans for its Messenger and WhatsApp services to eventually include the ability for users to engage with more sophisticated AI-powered chatbots as a form of entertainment. Meta executives told employees that the company is still committed to releasing AI research to the open source community. However, they didn't address a recentfrom Senators Richard Blumenthal and Josh Hawley expressing concern over a public leak of the company's LLaMA language model and the "the potential for its misuse in spam, fraud, malware, privacy violations, harassment, and other wrongdoing and harms.
