How WhatsApp AI-powered image generation works

Meta AI image generation is expected to work exactly as other tools which rely on the user’s text prompts and description to create a high-quality image. With AI images, users will get a new form of conversation as they will not only get to share emojis, GIFs, stickers or images, but they will be able to create their own personalised images.

To generate AI images, users need to open the chat attachment and top on the icon which showcases the Meta AI ring logo and is named as “Imagine”. Now, simply provide a prompt for the images to the AI chatbot and it will quickly provide you with an image which matches the description.
