Instagram could soon let you have AI-created profile pictures
Meta’s AI push could soon allow Instagram to enhance its feature set and get more people to use its tools. Instagram is reportedly testing the option of having an AI-generated profile picture for users, which is most likely to be powered by Meta’a Llama 3 AI model. The details about the feature come via a tipster named Alessandro Paluzzi, who is a developer and keeps a keen eye on upcoming releases.
Using AI For Insta Profile Pictures: Inevitable
Meta’s AI juggernaut has already made its impact on WhatsApp with the AI chatbot accessible to millions on the mobile and desktop. And Instagram was going to be its next target with the AI model, which is gradually coming to shape.
Even though it is still in the testing phase, the prospect of letting people create AI images on Instagram has a feeling of inevitability. The details sourced by Paluzzi further highlight the process of using the feature.
Instagram AI Profile Picture: How it Works
He says, you can click on the profile picture on Instagram, where the platform will give you the option to create an AI profile picture. Now, we don’t know if the image generation will happen by sourcing another photo or using text prompts, but knowing Meta, both options could be on the table.
Meta has a wide range of avenues to build its AI model and train them with data that resides on their servers, which invariably will attract regulatory concerns, especially for those in the EU regions. Either way, Instagram will benefit from Meta’s ownership and get these AI tools sooner rather than later.
