July 29 (Reuters) - Meta Platforms (META.O), opens new tab on Monday said it
will roll out a new tool called AI Studio that will allow users to create, share
and design personalized AI chatbots.
The AI Studio will allow users to create customized AI characters and also allow
Instagram creators to use the AI characters "as an extension of themselves" that
can handle common DM questions and story replies, Meta said.
Users can share their AI characters on the social media giant's various
platforms.

The new tool is built with Meta's Llama 3.1, the biggest version of its mostly
free artificial intelligence models released last week, which is available in
multiple languages and has performance metrics that compete with paid models
from rivals like OpenAI.
ChatGPT maker OpenAI is working on a project code-named "Strawberry," the
details of which are tightly kept secret even within OpenAI, as the startup
races to show that the types of models it offers are capable of delivering
advanced reasoning capabilities, Reuters exclusively reported earlier in July.
