Meta Jobs India: The importance of language in the technology world is rapidly increasing. Meta, a social media company heavily invested in Artificial Intelligence (AI), is now preparing to give its chatbots a local flavour. The company wants its chatbots to respond not just like machines, but to reflect human interaction and regional culture. To this end, Meta is working on a plan to hire contractors proficient in several languages, including Hindi.
Meta's platforms, such as WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger, have millions of Indian users, a significant portion of whom are Hindi speakers. The company wants its chatbots to accurately represent local dialects and sentiments when interacting with this large user base. This will not only make conversations more natural but also give users the feeling of interacting with a human being.
Meta has entrusted the recruitment for these positions to two staffing agencies, Crystal Equation and Aquent Talent. Several key qualifications have been set for candidates:
According to reports, the company will pay contractors on an hourly basis. The hourly rate is capped at $55, or approximately ₹4,850. This means that even if someone works only a few hours a day, they can earn a substantial income. This opportunity is particularly attractive to professionals whose experience lies in language and creativity.
This is not the first time Meta has invested heavily in chatbots. Previously, the company launched chatbots with celebrity voices. Although this project did not meet expectations, it led to the introduction of the AI Studio. This platform allows ordinary people to create their own chatbots.
India is not only Meta's largest market but its linguistic diversity and cultural richness are of particular importance to the company. Including Indian languages, including Hindi, will give the chatbots a local touch. This will improve user experience and help the company gain a stronger foothold in large markets like Asia.
