WhatsApp to Support Third-Party AI Agents, Allow Users to Integrate Them into Chatbox

Today AI Intelligence Brief

WhatsApp is developing native support for third-party AI agents, allowing users to integrate agents

like OpenClaw into the chatbox via an API key. This feature is limited to private chats; agents cannot join group chats or communities and cannot access the user's other conversations, contacts, or files. WhatsApp will remind users that AI replies may be incorrect. This move is seen as following the AI agent chat trend already established by Telegram.

IT之家：https://www.ithome.com/ 9 月 8 日消息，据科技媒体 WABetaInfo 上周（9 月 4 日）报道，WhatsApp 即将支持第三方 AI 智能体。

IT之家从原报道获悉，当 OpenClaw 等人工智能助手出现时，许多用户尝试将这些 AI 智能体当作机器人连接到 WhatsApp， 但很多情况下都会导致封号 。

对比之下， Telegram 选择拥抱时代趋势 ，后续逐渐成为用户与 AI 智能体聊天的主要平台之一。这些智能体既可以运行在用户家中的电脑，也可以在云端运行。

如今，WhatsApp 正在开发第三方 AI 智能体原生支持，允许用户将这些 Agent 接入到 WhatsApp 聊天框内。根据流传出的截图， WhatsApp 将使用 API key 与第三方 Agent 连接 。

此外，用户只能在私聊对话中与智能体交流， 不能将其添加到群聊或者社区 ，也无法访问用户的其他对话、联系人或文件。WhatsApp 还会提醒用户，AI 的回复可能会出错。
