Last month, there were rumors that WhatsApp is working on a new feature that will allow you to make AI-generated profile photos. The company is now getting closer to launching the new functionality for the popular instant messaging app. According to a report by WABetaInfo, WhatsApp will soon let users use different Meta AI language models for their AI-generated images.
WhatsApp’s support for different Meta AI language models was spotted in the latest beta version
According to the source, WhatsApp users can soon choose between two different Meta AI Llama LLM models for their AI-generated photos. The publication has found references to the two different models in the latest beta version of WhatsApp for Android. The report has found the new functionality in the 2.24.14.13 beta version of the app.
This feature will allow you to generate images of yourself using Meta AI. This functionality will be available in a future public version of the app. The feature seems to be under development, so it’s still not ready for beta testers. However, WABetaInfo discovered a preview of the new functionality in the latest beta version of the app.
In the new feature, the users will be able to choose between the default Llama 3-70B model for faster and simpler prompts. There will also be an option to choose the Llama 3-405B LLM model, which will handle more complex queries.
After training Meta AI, you can “Imagine yourself as anything” for a perfect AI photo
The screenshots shared by the source suggest that to use the new AI-generated profile feature the users will need to provide a set of photos to train Meta AI. Users must first take a single set of pictures, which Meta AI will then utilize to generate AI images. The photos captured in the setup process will be analyzed to create the AI images with accuracy. The users will have complete control over the functionality, as they will be able to delete their setup photos at any time.
Once done with the setup process, users can type “Imagine me” in Meta AI conversations to create AI images of themselves. Notably, this feature will also be available in individual and group chats. You will be able to type “@Meta AI imagine me” in these chats to generate your AI images. You can “Imagine yourself as anything” using the upcoming feature.
WhatsApp is currently testing the upcoming AI-generated profile photo feature. It is expected to be available globally in the upcoming WhatsApp updates. We will let you know as soon as it becomes widely available, so stay tuned for regular updates.
