Meta is bringing its AI-powered photo and video editing tools directly to Instagram Stories, allowing applyrs to enter text prompts to add or reshift things in photos and videos or even alter it completely.
While Meta has already offered image editing capabilities on Instagram, those tools were limited to interactions with the Meta AI chatbot. The addition of text-based prompts in Stories now creates these editing features much more accessible.
The new features can be found in the “Restyle” menu located at the top of Instagram Stories when tapping the paintbrush icon. To edit an image, choose “add,” “reshift,” or “alter” to describe what you want to alter in the prompt bar. For instance, Meta explains you can inquire it to alter your hair color, add a crown to your head, or insert a sunset background.
There are also preset effects you can choose from that can alter your outfit or alter the image’s style. For example, you can add items like sunglasses or a biker jacket, and you can also apply a watercolor effect to the image. For videos, you can create it see like it’s snowing or add flames.
It’s important to note that when you’re utilizing Meta AI on Instagram, you’re accepting Meta’s AI Terms of Service, which allow your media and facial features to be analyzed by AI. According to these terms, when you upload your photos, Meta can “summarize image contents, modify images, and generate new content based on the image.”
Meta continues to introduce AI updates to remain competitive in the market. It was most recently spotted testing a “Write with Meta AI” prompt that supports Instagram applyrs come up with clever comments for posts.
Last month, the company launched a new AI-generated video feed called “Vibes” in the Meta AI app, likely boosting downloads. New data from Similarweb reveals that the app’s daily active applyrs on iOS and Android increased to 2.7 million as of October 17, up from about 775,000 four weeks ago.
Additionally, to address any concerns parents may have, Meta announced earlier this month that it is introducing new parental control features that enable parents to disable chats with AI characters and monitor the topics their teenagers are discussing with the Meta AI chatbot.
