WhatsApp has unveiled a new feature called AI Writing Help, designed to make conversations smoother and easier. The tool aims to assist users when typing feels like too much effort or when they are unsure how to phrase a message.
The AI-powered assistant can generate quick suggestions depending on the tone you want to strike. Whether you need a polished professional reply, a witty remark to make a friend smile, or a thoughtful note for someone going through a difficult time, the feature provides options in just a few seconds. Once the AI creates a draft, users can either send it directly or adjust the text to make it sound more personal.
Accessing the tool is simple. While chatting in a one-on-one conversation or a group, users can look for a pencil icon. Tapping it activates the AI, which then creates a suggestion. At present, the feature is available only in English and limited to users in the United States. WhatsApp has said it intends “to bring it to other languages and countries later this year.”
The launch naturally raises questions about privacy, given WhatsApp’s reputation for secure, end-to-end encrypted chats. Typically, AI tools process data through external servers, which can lead to concerns. However, the company reassures its users that only they and their chat partners will be able to read the messages.
Whether AI Writing Help will become a useful addition or fade away as just another passing digital feature is yet to be seen. For now, WhatsApp promises that whenever you run out of words, it will be ready to help fill in the gaps.
