What is Meta AI?
Meta AI is a personal AI assistant from Meta for answering questions, creating and editing images, researching topics, shopping, finding local places, and planning content. People interact with it through conversations, describing what they need and refining the response through follow-up prompts.
The assistant can support both personal and business tasks. Its research feature searches multiple sources, organizes findings, and produces cited reports. For visual work, it can generate images from descriptions and modify uploaded photos. It can also suggest products based on requirements such as style, budget, and location.

- Conversational image generation: Creates visuals from written requests, including logos, thumbnails, cards, tattoo concepts, and other custom images.
- Photo editing: Touches up photos, removes or changes backgrounds, applies new styles, and supports edits indicated by sketches on an image.
- Deep research: Investigates complex questions across sources and organizes the results into cited reports with comparisons, timelines, and other requested details.
