Meta AI will be available on Quest headsets in the US and Canada as an experimental feature in August, and will include the Vision capability on Quest 3. Meta AI is the company’s conversational AI assistant powered by its Llama series of open-source large language models (LLMs). In the US & Canada, Meta AI is currently available in text form on the web at meta.ai or in the WhatsApp and Messenger phone apps, and in audio form on Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses via saying “Hey Meta”.
If you happen to have an iPhone and want to get a sense of how difficult to run are LLM on a mobile device, there’s a free app https://apps.apple.com/app/id6497060890 that allows just that. If your device has at least 8gb of memory then it will even show the most basic version of LLaMa (just text there), and since everything is done on device, you can even try it in airplane mode. Less meaningful would be running it on a computer, for that I suggest https://lmstudio.ai/ that is very easy to use.
