With AI image generation bursting into the mainstream this year, it seemed inevitable that the tech would make its way into the standard editing tools on major social media platforms. Sure enough, Meta's Instagram has announced the launch of an AI backdrop tool for Stories, and it means AI imagery is likely to become even more omnipresent.
Launching in the US initially, as is often the case, the tools will allow people to use prompts to change the background of images in Stories. Users will be able to choose from suggested prompts like 'on a red carpet' or 'being chased by dinosaurs' or will be able to write their own (see our pick of the best AI art generators for more powerful tools).
