WhatsApp has decided that sometimes, even typing a simple lesson is too much effort. Enter your new AI-operated writing assistant, AI writing aid, a tool, when you want to say what you want to say, or how it is best to say.

Whether you are targeting for a polished professional tone, a funny one-lineer to please a friend, or a comfortable note for someone who had a thick day, this AI feature will whipped suggestions in seconds. Once this happens, you can either send an auto-crown masterpiece or move it forward until it sounds right.

To go to this, next time you keep an eye on the pencil icon in a chat or group conversation. Tap it, and AI does the rest of the work. However, there are some catches: it is available only in English and only to users in the United States. But if you are somewhere else, do not disappoint. WhatsApp claimed, “To bring it to other languages ​​and countries later this year.”

Of course, whenever an AI feature turns into a messaging app, the first question that is in the brain is privacy. Eventually, the entire brand of WhatsApp rests on its end-to-end encryption. The company promises that only you and your chat partner can read what has been sent. Typically, AI questions are sent to remote servers for processing, which raise eyebrows.

Meta, the original company of WhatsApp, says it has been thought through this medium. The new assistant is designed using its personal processing technique, which allows AI to run without exposing their personal messages. The company states that this system ensures that “anyone other than you and the people you are talking about can reach or share your personal messages.” If it seems familiar, it is because Apple has a similar approach with its personal cloud compute, a way to offer AI features without closing all your data around the Internet.

So, in principle, your banquet, confession, and badly puncture rent are still alone. Meta insists that connecting AI will not lead to “WhatsApp’s core secrecy promise”.

This is serious items. But does the world really need another AI writing friend? Almost every major platform is now one, including email client, word processor, social media feed and even keyboards on your phone. They all want to lend one hand, want to brighten their sentences, or spice their jokes.

Whether it becomes a really useful tool or in a few weeks we forget that only another AI gimmick is yet to be seen. But very at least, next time you are in harm to words, WhatsApp will happily provide them for you.
