Generative AI is a class of artificial intelligence techniques and models that are designed to generate new and original content, such as images, text, music, or even videos. It involves training algorithms on large datasets and enabling them to learn patterns and structures within the data, allowing them to create new instances that resemble the training examples. Generative AI algorithms can produce creative outputs by combining and extrapolating from the learned knowledge, providing valuable tools for tasks like content generation, artistic expression, and data augmentation, among others. Dall-E 2 and Midjourney are great examples of generative AI. CEO of Meta, Mark Zuckerberg recently stated that Generative AI will soon be available in every single one of our devices.
All Meta products, such as Whatsapp, Instagram & Messenger will get this functionality
Recently, at a companywide all-hands meeting, Zuckerberg shed more light on Meta’s plans regarding generative AI. He provided employees with an overview of how the company intends to incorporate generative AI “into every single one of our products.” One of the proposed features involves the introduction of AI “agents” for popular platforms like WhatsApp and Messenger. This concept has been previously mentioned by Zuckerberg himself. Notably, details of the Instagram AI chatbot were discovered recently, offering users a choice of up to 30 distinct “personalities.”
Furthermore, Meta is reportedly developing generative AI photo editing capabilities for Instagram. This feature would enable users to modify their images using text prompts and subsequently share the edited photos with their followers. Zuckerberg has also hinted at the creation of post generation tools for Facebook, as well as for the platform’s advertisers, during the company’s recent earnings call.
The exact timeline for the release of these features remains uncertain. Nevertheless, Zuckerberg seems eager to see them implemented sooner rather than later. In addition to driving internal development, Meta has organized an internal hackathon, encouraging employees to propose innovative ideas for new generative AI features.
