**[The Verge](https://daily.dev/sources/theverge)** · 2 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

WhatsApp is testing a new design in its Android beta that includes a dedicated tab for AI chatbots. This update provides prominent space for AI characters and tools, including AI-generated images, stickers, and a Meta AI-powered search tool. The app also explores allowing users to create personalized AI characters directly within the app. The AI tab replaces the Communities tab, though Community features will still be available. The beta test is limited and currently not open for new testers.
