The “My AI” chatbot is available as an experimental feature for Snapchat+ subscribers and will be rolling out this week, the company said in a blogpost on Monday. “My AI can recommend birthday gift ideas for your BFF, plan a hiking trip for a long weekend, suggest a recipe for dinner, or even write a haiku about cheese for your cheddar-obsessed pal.” news Also Read: Snapchat Showcases AR Tools And Spectacles At Delhi Creator Connect

Snapchat brings ‘My AI’ chatbot

Users can also name the chatbot and customise the wallpaper for their Chat. My AI, like other AI-powered chatbots, is prone to hallucinations and can be tricked to say almost anything. news Also Read: Google Rolls Out Flight Deals, An AI Tool That Helps You Find Cheapest Flights: How To Use It

While My AI is built to avoid any sort of biased, inaccurate, dangerous or misleading content, mistakes might however happen.

Also, users can press and hold any message from My AI to provide feedback.

“Please be aware of its many deficiencies and sorry in advance! All conversations with My AI will be stored and may be reviewed to improve the product experience,” the company said.

“Please do not share any secrets with My AI and do not rely on it for advice,” it added.

This comes after Microsoft’s Bing that was updated with OpenAI’s GPT-4 model. Several users complained that they received strange responses from the search engine. To this, Microsoft announced that Bing can be provoked to respond outside of its “designed tone”. Taking a lesson from this, Snapchat is already making its users aware that its chatbot already has “many deficiencies”. It even apologised in advance if any such situation arises.
