Meta AI launches a dedicated Mac app with screen sharing

Meta released a Mac app for its AI chatbot that can view a shared window to answer questions or make suggestions about on-screen content, and it supports system-wide dictation. It follows similar desktop apps already shipped by Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic.

Why it matters: Meta was the last major lab without a desktop assistant, and matching screen-context features puts Meta AI in more direct competition with Claude's and ChatGPT's desktop apps rather than just the mobile and web chatbot market. Desktop presence with screen awareness is becoming table stakes for consumer AI assistants.
