Meta released a native Mac desktop app for Meta AI (1.0 beta) built for Apple Silicon on macOS 15+, using an AppKit/SwiftUI shell with WebKit. It offers a richer, non-Electron experience with features like Quick Invoke (Option-Space), a dictation shortcut, window attachment to conversations, screen recording with necessary permissions for context gathering, and a sidebar for Media, Artifacts, tasks, and history.
