The most popular messenger in Ukraine, Rakuten Viber, has launched an innovative “Chat Summary” feature, which analyzes unread messages in group chats and provides a condensed summary based on ChatGPT technology.
AI chat summaries
New Viber functionality
Rakuten Viber developers have introduced a new "Chat Summary" option that uses artificial intelligence technology ChatGPT. This feature is designed to generate a condensed summary of unread messages in group chats, saving users time. The feature is currently being tested among 10% of iOS and Android users in Ukraine, the USA, Japan, Bulgaria, Poland and the Philippines.
How AI Summary Works
The tool analyzes 5 to 100 unread messages in a group chat and creates a short summary of the topics discussed. When you open a group chat with 5 or more unread messages, a dialog box will automatically appear asking you to create a summary of the conversation. This will prevent you from missing important information, avoiding the need to re-read all the content.
Example of using the new Chat Summary feature in Rakuten Viber messenger.
Language support
The new feature supports Ukrainian and more than 50 other languages. According to Rakuten Viber statistics, two thirds of Ukrainian users communicate monthly in group chats, which has identified them as the most popular communication format for the implementation of AI resumes.
New appointment in Ukraine
The day before, Rakuten Viber announced the appointment of its first director in Ukraine. It was the former head of the media about IT business AIN.UA Ilya Boshnyakov.

It sounds promising! 🤖 The new Chat Summary feature in Viber may be useful for those who regularly participate in crowded group chats. But it’s interesting how well the algorithm will be able to highlight key points and summarize the essence of the discussion.

I often miss important messages in work groups or with friends because there is so much rehashing and unnecessary chatter. 😓 A summary function could help you quickly get to the heart of the conversation and not miss the main point.

ChatGPT technology gives hope that the summary will actually be useful and informative. 💡 It’s much easier to read a succinct summary than to delve into every message, especially when there are dozens of them. It is important that this works in Ukrainian and other languages spoken in Ukraine.

Baa, what stupid new features! 😠 People have stopped communicating normally, everyone just writes in these chats. We used to meet in person, look into each other's eyes and listen to what they had to say. And now we need some kind of artificial intelligence to understand what we’re talking about!

Cool idea from Viber! 👏 Sometimes it’s so difficult for me to keep track of all the important events in large group chats with relatives or colleagues. A summary of unread messages will definitely come in handy so you don't miss key points.

This will be a real salvation for me! 🙌 In our event planning chat, sometimes there are up to a hundred new messages a day, and I don’t always have time to read them all. I miss important things, and then everyone argues. A summary of the chat would be very helpful!

Personally, I'm wary of using AI to generalize about human communication. 🤔 This is too personal and deep an area that is difficult for algorithms to fully understand. There is still a risk of missing important nuances and details.

But I'm more concerned about the issue of confidentiality. 🔐 Will users' personal data and information be fully protected if their messages are analyzed using AI? It is important to ensure this at the proper level.

It’s cool that Ukrainians will be the first to try this feature! 😎 We are often pioneers in the field of IT and high technology. It is important to test ChatGPT's capabilities in real time and provide feedback to developers.
