The Quick Chat Recaps feature differs from the current message summaries that offer brief synopsis of unread messages within a single chat. It aims to deliver a more comprehensive summary of unread messages across chosen conversations.
Users can go to the Chats tab, select up to five conversations, and click on a new icon named Quick Recap. When this option is activated, Private Processing organises unread messages so that Meta AI can create a summary without revealing personal data. Users then get an overview of the most important unread messages in each conversation chosen.
As per WABetaInfo, the feature can only handle a maximum of five chats at once. If users require summaries for other chats, they will have to repeat the process. Furthermore, chats secured by Advanced Chat Privacy cannot be included in Quick Recap, because users have specifically opted out of AI features.
Prior to processing messages, data and requests are managed through the Private Processing environment.Private Processing ensures that the message is encrypted, and neither WhatsApp nor Meta can access the original data or the summary created.
