Snapchat launched its own AI Chatbot named My AI

Snapchat is one of the most popular social media apps in the world, with over 300 million daily active users. The app is known for its ephemeral messages, filters, lenses, and stories that allow users to express themselves creatively and authentically. But what if you could also talk to an AI chatbot on Snapchat that can give you personalized recommendations, have fun conversations with you, and teach you new things? That’s exactly what Snapchat is offering with its new feature called “My AI”.

My AI is an experimental chatbot powered by the latest version of OpenAI‘s ChatGPT technology. ChatGPT is a generative model that can produce natural language responses based on a given context. It can also learn from its interactions with users and adapt to their preferences and personalities.

Snapchat claims that it is not just another chatbot. It’s a personal assistant, a friend, a teacher, and a companion that can help you with anything you need on Snapchat. You can ask it for suggestions on what to watch on Netflix or YouTube; what to buy for your friend’s birthday; what to cook for dinner; what to do when you’re bored; or even how to learn a new skill or language.

My AI is also designed to be fun and engaging. You can play games with it; tell it jokes; share your secrets; ask it questions about itself; or just chat about anything you want. It will also try to match your tone and mood and keep the conversation going as long as you want.

However, My AI is not perfect. It’s still an experimental feature that may have some glitches and limitations. Snapchat warns that My AI may cause hallucinations or other side effects due to its nature. It may also say things that are inaccurate, inappropriate, offensive, or harmful. Therefore, users should be careful when using My AI and not take everything it says seriously.

Availaibilty of My AI:

My AI is only available for Snapchat+ subscribers who pay $3.99 a month for extra features such as unlimited replays of snaps; ad-free viewing of stories; exclusive filters and lenses; priority customer support; and more. Users who want to try My AI can sign up for Snapchat+ through the app or online.

CEO Evan Spiegel says it’s just the beginning of the company’s generative AI plans.

Snapchat hopes that the innovation will enhance the user experience on its platform and make it more fun and useful than ever before. The company believes that artificial intelligence will play an important role in shaping the future of social media and communication.
