Instagram manager Adam Mosseri announced a new AI feature that will allow video creators to change almost any element in their videos using text commands. Accordingly, anyone can now create and share videos based on their imagination. The new editing tools will be powered by Meta’s Movie Gen AI model and will roll out on Instagram next year. The feature is so big that it might be worth the wait. Here are the details…
Imagination has no limits: Instagram introduces appearance and background editing tools for videos with AI
In his video, Mosseri explained that users can make many edits, from changing their clothes, to changing the background they are in to a different atmosphere, or even adding jewelry and changing their overall appearance. For example, in one scene, Mosseri’s background transforms into a snow-covered atmosphere, while in another scene she transforms into a puppet-like animated character.
In fact, Meta first introduced the Movie Gen AI model in October. This model is capable of creating video and audio with simple text commands, as well as editing existing videos. The initial announcement stated that this tool would not be available to the public. But now it has been announced that this model will be used to provide new editing tools for content creators on Instagram.
By the way, Meta made this announcement months after OpenAI and Adobe announced similar models. OpenAI’s Sora model and Adobe’s Firefly video maker were offered to users for testing. Meta will use its Instagram trump card to compete with these giants and gain a big advantage.
In short, we can say that this artificial intelligence feature will challenge the imagination of everyone who creates content. In fact, since there will be no limit to what can be produced, you may lose track of time. However, it should be noted that we don’t yet know how the introduced tools will perform in the public release.
