GREAT. How do I access Meta AI?

You can find Meta AI in the top right corner of your mobile device (that little blue and purple circle) OR you can login on your desktop HERE: https://www.meta.ai/

OK, now what do I use Meta AI for?

You can use it to do just about anything! There are some pre-filled questions; but lets explore something a little more specific.

Let's test Meta AI with some leftovers food items I have - some beef cubes, potatoes and lettuce. 😂

Some interesting recommendations, nothing too crazy! It wasn’t able to combine all 3 items. I am curious about this Beef and Potato Stirfry though… next I want an image.

From here, I was wondering if it could generate a different version of the photo… and well. Meta AI struggled.

I ACTUALLY laughed out loud at this one. I gave the response a downvote (helps with the AI generation in the future) and then got a little sassy and tried again:

Thats a bit better! I would download this photo; but what if I wanted to add this recipe to my blog after I made it?

Not too shabby honestly! So what do you think? Would YOU make this leftovers Beef and Potato AI stirfry? If you do try out Meta AI, let me know about your fun explorations!

Can I only use Meta AI in chat form?

You can also access Meta AI while scrolling through your Facebook Feed. If you come across an interesting post, simply ask Meta AI for more information right from the post itself. For instance, if you see a photo of the northern lights in Iceland, you can ask Meta AI about the best time of year to see the aurora borealis.

How do I search WITHOUT Meta AI?

This is ALSO not as simple as it seems; however it is doable. I suspect Facebook will change this as people get upset - and add an option to search without AI. But in the meantime: Choose any of the options without the meta AI circles, OR select “search facebook” at the bottom.

I hope this experiment was helpful, and if you were looking to get rid of Meta AI; I will update this blog if Meta gives us the option to do so😒
