Meta launches standalone Mac app for Meta AI

Meta has launched a standalone Meta AI app for Mac devices, expanding its AI tools to business owners and content creators who rely on Facebook and Instagram. The app offers features not currently available through Meta AI's website or mobile app. The new app allows users to share their Mac screen with the AI assistant, enabling it to provide more accurate guidance by viewing the user's work context. This feature is designed to help businesses with posts, ads, and marketing content, with integration for Google Workspace and Meta's analytics tools. The free app is part of Meta's broader push to make AI practical for business management, though advanced features may require a Meta One subscription. It follows the launch of a cheaper AI coding agent and aligns with CEO Mark Zuckerberg's vision of AI agents managing businesses entirely.
