Popular photo service Instagram introduced a new tool for American users - image background editor with support for generative artificial intelligence technologies.
Here's What We Know
According to the head of the AI division of Meta, Ahmad Al-Dakhleh, the tool allows you to change the background of photos in Stories with the help of text prompts. For example, you can choose ready-made variants "On the red carpet", "Dinosaurs are chasing me" or come up with your own.
After publishing a story with a background changed in this way, other users will have access to the prompt "Try it" so that they too can experiment with the new functionality.
