    - Data to train on
    - Being the first GenAI experience of users that then might associate this stuff with xAi branding.

Not sure I buy your second bullet.

Windows has had copilot baked in for a while now, where genai stuff is already possible.

Meta has their ai baked into WhatsApp, and probably into instagram as well (not sure though)

Google is rolling out gemini on android.

I would posit that for a majority of telegram users, xAi is just going to be "yet another AI integration" for them, and it'll be nothing novel.

On the chats tab, right above the green "+" floating button there is a "meta AI" icon on my version of WhatsApp. If you click on it it opens up a chat with the AI like normal.

I guess they are still rolling out the feature.
