[Claim your free report](=) Create your own AI Assistant Imagine having an AI Assistant version of yourself to better support your customers and prospects. Would this be something you're interested in? Meta recently announced a number of AI tools. Some are just for fun. Some could definitely help businesses of all sizes. Personally, I'm VERY excited about the potentials with [creating our own AI Assistant](. For the most part, AI chatbots such as ChatGPT are very impersonal. You type in a prompt and it spits out content. Now, with Meta's AI Assistants (that very much look and act like a virtual person!), you can create a more human-like interaction and experience for your audience. Of course, being clear and transparent who people are talking to is very important. To kick off the new AI Assistants, Meta has partnered with numerous celebs such as such as Snoop Dog, Tom Brady, Paris Hilton, Mr. Beast, and more. Meta is reportedly [paying]( celebs as much as $5M for six hours of work! 😳 Would you pay for an ad-free version of Facebook & Instagram? Meta is planning to charge $14 USD a month for ad-free Facebook and Instagram [subscriptions]( in Europe. This is in response to the European Union’s Digital Services Act, which comes into effect on 1 January 2024. The new rules limit the ability of platforms to serve personalized ads without seeking consent first – which could have a major impact on businesses like Meta that rely heavily on advertising revenue. Don't worry, there will always be a version of Facebook and Instagram that is free, the company says. 😉 AI Tools (Toys!) Have you discovered Meta's [new AI Stickers]() yet? It's super easy to type in your own prompt and create something unique to add to your Stories, for example. AI Stickers are rolling out on Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp. [Anything to increase our time on these platforms, right?! 📱👀] Speaking of AI, have you played with Canva's new [Magic Studio]() yet?
