This is the best summary I could come up with:


On Wednesday, Meta announced its consumer-friendly entry into the crowded AI chatbot landscape, The Verge reports.

It is designed as a general-purpose chatbot that Meta says can help with planning trips, answering questions, and generating images from text prompts.

Meta says the celebrity AIs went into limited beta on Wednesday, but we have not seen on-the-ground (or on-the-phone, as it were) reports of them in action yet.

To ensure that these celebrity AI characters don't go into Tay territory and spout embarrassing or harmful phrases, the company says it spent 6,000 hours in red teaming exercises to identify and address potential problematic uses of its assistants.

This process included generating thousands of internal conversations to refine the assistant's behavior and responses.

However, The Verge hinted that this could change as the company aims to enhance its chatbot's usefulness through "social integrations," according to Ahmad Al-Dahle, Meta’s VP of generative AI.
