FollowWith artificial intelligence (AI) emerging as the buzzword, more businesses are joining the quickly escalating competition. But Meta sticks out as one of the only companies in the space utilising generative AI for applications aimed at the mainstream market, such as Instagram. Ahmad Al-Dhale, Meta's head for generative AI, announced that the business is now launching a new AI media editing tool dubbed "Backdrop" on Instagram as a result of its accomplishments in this field.
Backdrop will only be accessible to US Instagram users at first. using a few touches, you can quickly adjust or totally change the backdrop of your image using this tool. In order to do this, you provide prompts, much like you would with other generative AI-based tools like ChatGPT.
Ahmad says that although prompts like "surrounded by puppies" and "chased by dinosaurs" work well, you can really enter whatever you can think of, including many automobiles in the backdrop or unicorns, among other things.

Once the adjustments are finished, the backdrop tool replaces your photographs' background with a new one according to your suggestion. A "Try it" sticker will show up on the picture when you post it to your story, giving your followers the opportunity to see this background feature for the first time.
