Do you think will take time for Whatsapp team to activate this feature in Whatsapp web? Because Whatsapp android app in beta version (2.24.17.7) already has a transcribe native feature for voice messages, I recently noticed that around one week ago.

edit: btw I don't know which model Whatsapp team is using behind scenes but definitely doesn't looks like is whisper because is notoriously slow in comparison with using whisper inside chatgpt android app or groq web interface.

We think them releasing those features will increase our exposure, but most computers won’t run models and most phones won’t stream AI.

Also, Meta won’t run those models in the cloud for privacy reasons (being, most people don’t trust them).

We use a mix of distilled whispers on custom hardware to make ends meet.

We’re also planning on releasing more customer (and business) oriented features, but not based on AI.

We just made the whatsapp web we wanted and a price tag on it :)
