You can easily have conversations with Meta AI by sending voice prompts. Meta AI will respond with voice and text and you’ll see a transcript of your voice prompts in the chat. Messages from Meta AI are generated by artificial intelligence (AI), using a service from Meta, in response to the prompts you send to the AI.
Chatting with Meta AI and sending voice prompts is optional. To use this feature, you have to grant WhatsApp permission to access your microphone. You also have to be actively using this feature for it to access your microphone. When sending voice prompts to Meta AI, you can see when your microphone is on and can mute or unmute at any time.
AI messages and prompts are different from personal messages and calls. When you choose to interact with Meta AI, Meta receives your messages and prompts to generate responses and improve its AI quality. You have the option to delete your chats with Meta AI. As always, your personal messages and calls remain end-to-end encrypted, meaning not even WhatsApp or Meta can see or listen to them.
Note:
- This feature is currently only available in limited countries and might not be available to you yet, even if other users in your country have access.

When you chat with AI you can:
