Threads adds private Meta AI chats without cluttering your feed

Threads now lets users message Meta AI in direct messages and keep the conversation private.

Users can send posts, images, links, or videos and then ask follow-up questions in the same chat.

The update comes as Threads expands DMs with standalone messaging, group chats, and web access.

The change makes on-app research easier while keeping AI replies out of the public feed, strengthening Meta’s messaging ecosystem.
