Note: Meta AI assistant is currently only available to users 13+ using Meta Quest in the United States and Canada with English set as the default language.

Meta AI will be replacing Voice Commands in the US and Canada. The Meta AI assistant is powered by Meta’s latest AI model and offers three exciting capabilities:

  1. System Interactions: Enables you to quickly navigate and perform tasks through Horizon OS such as turning up the volume, or opening your camera roll.
  2. LLM Chatbot (LLM): Allows you to tap into Meta’s AI capabilities to have conversations and get access to real-time information such as explaining calculus, or writing a poem in real-time.
  3. Meta AI with Vision: Enables you to use MultiModal capabilities to better understand what you see in Passthrough such as looking at a plant and telling you what type it is, or being able to translate foreign text into English.

Users who are 13+ in the US and Canada can experience Meta AI assistant on their Quest 3S, Quest 3, Quest Pro and Quest 2 headsets. Users will need to manually enable Meta AI capabilities using the Experimental Tab in System Settings. Meta AI is not offered to Quest for Business users and this toggle will be disabled for Quest for Business users.
