Group chats are best on WhatsApp – from staying close to your inner circle to coordinating with your fantasy league. Today we’re making them even better with new polls updates for faster decision-making, @all mentions to get everyone’s attention, and a simpler way to create new group chats from existing groups.
Everyone is building AI agents. Far fewer are building the infrastructure these agents need to be trusted in production. Large language models (LLMs) can generate recommendations, forecast outcomes, write creative, summarize performance and suggest next actions.
