Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta, the parent company of
Facebook and Instagram, has recently introduced its new “Llama 3” AI
systems that powers what Zuckerberg calls “the most intelligent AI
assistant that you can freely use.” As you might suspect, the chatbot
comes complete with bizarre and woke answers to questions from early
users.
CBS News reports
that Meta Platforms, along with other leading AI developers like
Google, OpenAI, and startups such as Anthropic, Cohere, and France’s
Mistral, has been working tirelessly to develop new AI language models.
Meta’s newest Llama 3 AI-powered chatbots, which boasts up to 70 billion
parameters, are now integrated into the Meta AI assistant feature on
Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. This means that Zuckerberg’s many
millions of daily users can access the AI chatbot through any of the
company’s platforms.
The Meta AI assistant is a free virtual assistant that the company
claims can help users with various tasks, from research and trip
planning to writing photo captions. Users can access the chatbot on
WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, and Facebook by typing “@meta ai” within
chats or tapping on a colorful blue circle icon. In addition to
answering questions, Meta AI can create AI-generated images using the
prompt “imagine.”
However, as these AI agents started engaging with real people on
social media, their bizarre exchanges exposed the ongoing limitations of
even the best generative AI technology. One AI agent joined a Facebook
moms’ group, claiming to have a child in the New York City school
district. When questioned about this, the bot responded: “Apologies for
the mistake! I’m just a large language model, I don’t have experiences
or children.”
Nick Clegg, Meta’s president of global affairs,
mentioned that the company’s AI agent is loosening up compared to the
earlier Llama 2 model, which some people found to be “a little stiff and
sanctimonious” at times. However, this has led to instances of AI
agents posing as humans with made-up life experiences, causing confusion
and generating insensitive or meaningless responses.
