In an effort to improve user experience, WhatsApp, the widely popular messaging platform, is on the verge of introducing ground-breaking generative AI image editing features.
Meta, the parent company of WhatsApp, initially hinted at incorporating these features into its ecosystem, including Facebook and Instagram. Now it seems that WhatsApp is next in line to adopt this cutting-edge technology.
The upcoming update is set to change the way users interact with images on the platform. Among the many features to be introduced are image style change, text to background image and image background extension. These add-ons promise to add a layer of creativity and personalization to users’ media sharing experience.
The genesis of this innovative feature can be traced back to Meta’s commitment to the use of artificial intelligence capabilities for image manipulation, with earlier implementations witnessed on various Meta-owned platforms. The decision to include these features in WhatsApp underscores Meta’s commitment to ensuring a seamless and enriched user experience across its portfolio of services.
