Facebook Unveils Siri Competitor 'M' That Lives Inside Messenger

Facebook has unveiled a new digital assistant called 'M' that lives inside the Messenger app. David Marcus, VP of Messaging Products, made the announcement.

--
Today we're beginning to test a new service called M. M is a personal digital assistant inside of Messenger that completes tasks and finds information on your behalf. It's powered by artificial intelligence that's trained and supervised by people.

Unlike other AI-based services in the market, M can actually complete tasks on your behalf. It can purchase items, get gifts delivered to your loved ones, book restaurants, travel arrangements, appointments and way more.


This is early in the journey to build M into an at-scale service. But it's an exciting step towards enabling people on Messenger to get things done across a variety of things, so they can get more time to focus on what's important in their lives.

You can download Messenger from the App Store for free. If you have access to the assistant, let us know what you think!

It's a good thing I still haven't updated Facebook and never downloaded the Facebook messenger app, this is just ridiculous, Facebook needs to get their servers shut down
