Snapchat offers the artificial intelligence My AI. Its answers will help you with a number of everyday problems.
Snapchat speaks of an “experimental, friendly chatbot”. This is available to users free of charge and is based on the well-known ChatGPT from OpenAI. It is possible to ask him questions and have a conversation.
My AI is suitable for this
The chatbot is particularly useful for obtaining information very quickly. It proves to be useful in the following situations:
- He helps with holiday planning by, among other things, suggesting beautiful excursion destinations at the destination.
- My AI provides gift ideas for your loved ones.
- If you have a question about homework or are preparing a lecture for university, he will support you.
- He names suitable films for the next home cinema evening.
In this way, the service can be used in a similar way to ChatGPT. However, it also offers the option of integrating it directly into a chat with friends while you look for ideas together or plan a trip. To do this, add him to a group and address him as “@MyAI”. You can also select him in your contact list and have a conversation with him alone.
Other important information:
- My AI can be used in Snapchat on an Android smartphone and the iPhone.
- It is automatically pinned to your personal contact list.
- Deleting from the contact list is only possible with a paid Snapchat+ subscription.
- Blocking is not necessary because you have to speak to My AI directly for the contact and it does not start chats independently.
Risks of technology
Snapchat is particularly popular with a younger target group. Parents may therefore wonder whether the chatbot is dangerous for their children. However, My AI is programmed in such a way that certain keywords are filtered out in the best possible way from the outset. It then does not use these in its answers.
This applies, for example, to hateful and violent expressions as well as the topic of drugs. Artificial intelligence also provides professional contact points when questions about mental well-being or similar are asked.
However, there is no guarantee that all safety precautions will be met. Misleading or thematically biased answers are not unavoidable. Therefore, always view the service’s statements critically and also consult other sources.
