WhatsApp will be enhancing its artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot capabilities by integrating a two-way voice chat feature. This new feature will reportedly allow users to interact with the Meta AI chatbot using voices that include public figures, offering a more personalized and engaging experience.
The forthcoming voice chat feature is expected to include multiple voice options for Meta AI. The feature will let users have access to a range of voices. At present, this feature is not available to Android beta testers but as per news report, the users will soon have access to a range of voices, including those of well-known personalities.
According to the screenshots from the beta version, Meta AI voice feature will offer a variety of voices with different pitches, tonalities, and accents, providing a customized interaction experience.
Users will reportedly soon be able to choose from a variety of voices, including options with UK and US accents. While details about gender or regional accents are not yet revealed, the feature is expected to offer voices of public figures, such as influencers or celebrities.
This move follows Meta's previous efforts to integrate AI personalities into its messaging platforms. Last year, Meta introduced custom AI chatbots on Messenger that mirrored the personalities of various influencers and celebrities. The new voice feature for WhatsApp appears to be a natural extension of these initiatives, aiming to further enhance user engagement with AI-driven interactions.
Moreover, the interface for Meta AI Voice Mode on the instant messaging platform is expected to be straightforward. Upon activation, users will see a bottom sheet with "Meta AI" prominently displayed and a blue ring icon at the center.
