Rakuten Viber brings AI capabilities with its new chatbot

Rakuten Viber has launched a new chatbot, the AI chat & Create feature unlocking a host of AI capabilities for users. The feature allows users to ask questions, and design images via the app. It is powered by DALL-E and Davinci’s AI generators.

With the AI chatbot, Viber users have access to AI text and image generators. Likewise, users can ask questions or test the chatbot’s creativity by designing unique images.

AI (Artificial Intelligence) tech is growing. However, to use the latest AI tools, users need to create a new account for each AI service. Besides, users also need to have a basic understanding of how AI works. However, Viber comes with a noble objective. With an influx of interest in AI, Viber’s goal is to make AI more accessible, and easy for its users. Viber serves as the interface between AI technology and its users. The company seeks to allow everyone to take part in the fun without providing access to their email or creating a separate account for each service. With a few taps, users can transition between chatting with friends to using the chatbot, sharing their art designs, or answering questions.
