The company is also introducing voice capabilities to its AI chatbot, allowing it to respond with celebrity voices and analyze photos. Furthermore, Meta is testing AI-generated images in user feeds and an AI-powered translation feature for Instagram Reels, which will automatically dub videos to sync with the translated language. These updates were announced at the Meta Connect 2024 conference. Meta has also expanded its business AI tools for advertisers, with over 1M advertisers currently using generative AI tools.
