Meta launches a dedicated desktop app for its AI chatbot on macOS, offering a new way to interact with Meta AI directly from the desktop. Meta says the app lets users share their current window with the chatbot so it can provide suggestions, answer questions, or help create content based on what is on-screen.
The rollout reflects Meta’s broader effort to position its AI tools for business and productivity use cases. The Verge and Engadget both frame the move as part of Meta’s push to make AI more accessible on desktop platforms rather than only through web or mobile experiences. In addition to the window-sharing feature, the Mac app includes dictation support that works across other applications, according to the reports.
While both outlets focus on the availability of the Mac app and its desktop-oriented capabilities, their emphasis differs slightly: Engadget highlights the business-friendly intent behind the launch, while The Verge details the specific interaction features, including window sharing and cross-app dictation.
