The topic WhatsApp testing multi-chat AI summaries for unread messages is currently the subject of lively discussion — readers and analysts are keeping a close eye on developments.
This is taking place in a dynamic environment: companies’ decisions and competitors’ reactions can quickly change the picture.
Meta is expanding its in-app AI-powered summaries feature on WhatsApp to include unread context across multiple chats. Here are the details.
As spotted by WABetaInfo, the latest TestFlight build of WhatsApp includes references to a new feature that will let users view an AI-powered summary of unread messages across multiple chats.
Currently, the app offers an AI-powered summary of unread messages within each individual chat, with the entire summarization process being handled by WhatsApp’s Private Processing system.
Now, according to the data WABetaInfo, the app is working on “a unified unread chat summary feature,” which will add a “Get a summary” button at the top of the Chats tab when the “Unread” filter is selected.
As you can see from the attached image, WhatsApp is exploring the implementation of a feature designed to elaborate private chat summaries. Although this feature is currently under development and set for release in a future update, it already promises to make summarization more convenient than ever. At the moment, users in certain regions can generate message summaries by opening a conversation. Here, users can tap the button “summarize” to elaborate a concise summary. By reading a summary, users can easily understand the key points of a conversation since it condenses multiple messages into a concise overview. Private Processing generates a secure summary of unread messages. In particular, it processes the content in a way that preserves privacy, while still delivering a clear overview of the conversation.
WABetaInfo says the feature is under development for both iOS and Android versions of WhatsApp, which could indicate it won’t be long before it’s released, or at least made available to beta testers.
