Instagram launches new personalized template feature.

2023-12-18

According to Techcrunch, to "create an add template," start by uploading a story and adding elements such as GIFs, custom text, or images from the gallery. Then click "add your template" stickers and select the elements you want to fix. Our hope is that other users will follow your Instagram account and make their own adaptations or gain inspiration from the templates. Meta, the parent company of Instagram and Facebook, has been committed to enhancing the release features of both social media platforms in 2023. In an article on the Meta website, the company states, "To end this year, we are testing over 20 new ways in which generative AI can improve your experience on Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp - including search, social discovery, advertising, and business information delivery." Instagram's AI-driven background editor Meta's generative AI lead, Ahmad Al-Dahle, announced a new AI-generated background editing tool to US users on Instagram this week. These "try it" stickers prompt other users to use Instagram's generative AI's creative text suggestions to change the background of their posts. The algorithm used by generative AI is "learned" from a wide database and added to each suggestion or creation. An evolving repository based on suggestions is called "prompts." This year, everyone witnessed the development and integration of AI on all of Meta's social media platforms. This month, Meta announced a standalone website for users to create images from these text-based ideas. This tool allows users in the US with Instagram or Facebook accounts to access the website and add suggestions in the text box. This feature also exists in Facebook Messenger, but the website is aimed at those who create their own works using just one domain.
