AI-powered image generation coming soon to WhatsApp chats

You’ll soon be able to create images and send them in WhatsApp conversations thanks to the integration of artificial intelligence.

Meta intends to make AI part of WhatsApp. Just a few weeks ago, we learned how the instant messaging app was working on an AI-powered profile photo feature, but this isn’t the first time Meta has taken a step in this regard, and its chatbot is already available to some users. It is now known that AI-powered image generation will soon reach WhatsApp.

This feature was discovered thanks to the work WABetaInfo who analyzed latest beta version of whatsapp for androidhaving found enough information to suggest that Meta is working on a feature that will allow users to create AI images directly from WhatsApp.

AI-powered image generation will be WhatsApp’s next innovation

WhatsApp version 2.24.11.17 was the one who identified this promising feature. As seen in the app being developed, the functionality will be integrated into the section for sending photos, videos, files, etc. At the end of the list, you will find a new icon.

This icon will be identical to the Meta chatbot icon and It will say “Imagine.” which refers to the fact that it is a feature designed to create images using AI. His work is still unknown; in fact, although the icon appeared, it could not be used to create an image.

Meta can reserve this feature for all those users who were able to access their chatbot on WhatsApp. The rest will have to wait for the official launch of the company or, conversely, stop developing this feature, and it will never see the light of day.

Interesting to see this AI will become an important part of any applicationalthough we will have to see how this new feature works in the real world to understand whether it is useful or, on the contrary, remains unnoticed because it is not used.

There is no date set for the launch of this feature on WhatsApp. Thus, you can only pay attention to the actions of Meta regarding its applications, with the protagonist in this case being WhatsApp, which may receive news over the coming weeks.
