Based on the most recent update from the WhatsApp news tracker, “WhatsApp is introducing a function that includes a quick way to access chats enhanced with artificial intelligence directly from the Chats section, and it’s currently accessible to certain users.”
The upcoming evolving feature of the app underscores the company’s allegiance to highlighting and smoothly integrating AI-assisted interactions into the daily use of the messaging app.
As per the screenshot, there is a new button popped up to the bottom right in the navigation bar on WhatsApp, which allows users to instantly open the AI-powered chat.
According to WABetaInfo, the AI-powered chats are still exclusively available to a specific group of users, while the timeline for the broader release remains unknown.
Yet, certain individuals who download the most recent iteration of WhatsApp for iOS through the App Store might have the opportunity to encounter the forthcoming functionality.
The key focus of this shortcut key is to reduce the time and effort required to start these specialised conversations.
Moreover, “placing the shortcut prominently in the Chats tab ensures users are well-informed about this feature, encouraging the integration of AI-assisted interactions into their regular use of the messaging app”.
After the beta testers, the update will soon be extended to a broader user base.
