After a nearly year-long pause, Meta has announced the return of its AI chatbot, Meta AI, to the European market. Starting this week, Meta AI will be rolled out across WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger in 41 European countries and 21 other regions, but initially only with text-based chat functionality. Meta AI initially launched in the US in 2023. Although Meta had planned to bring the assistant to Europe, it was delayed due to concerns in Ireland.
