I think that's shaky but also that's OpenAI and not Meta. Up until whenever Muse was launched Meta didn't have anything I'd call a LLM product.

They've had AI-powered chat and search features in WhatsApp/Instagram/Facebook itself for a few years now.

Meh those sound mostly like pilots and AFAIK most of this stuff didn't last long.
I agree that at some point it stopped being a pilot and started being a product. So not that interested in arguing exactly when that happened.
They're only experimental in the way that computers are still experimental, since we continue to find new ways to use computers.
