Meta's new AI tool can respond to your DMs on Instagram — so you don't have to
It could open up a new era of social interaction.
AI assistants can do pretty much these days. From helping you book appointments, order shopping items to roasting your questionable life choices or simply just cracking jokes.
Now imagine having an AI assistant that can handle common DM questions and story replies on your Instagram account so you don't have to. With Meta's new tool called AI Studio (currently in development) this could become a reality.
The new tool, powered by Meta’s Llama 3.1, is expected to help you to create, share and design personalized AI characters on Instagram and also allow creators to use the AI characters "as an extension of themselves".

Users will have the power to design their own AI personalities, from appearance to tone of voice. Whether you want a snarky teen, a wise-cracking grandpa, or a deadpan robot, the possibilities are endless.
While the full details of Meta's plan are still under wraps, the potential implications are exciting. It could open up a new era of social interaction, where we're not just connecting with other humans but also with our own personalized AI companions.
It all sounds exciting and amazing but as with AI tools, concerns whether or not the AI characters would be used responsibly and ethically may arise, unless Meta would implement safeguards to prevent the creation of harmful or offensive personalities.
