Meta’s new feature aims to add movement to static photos. Thanks to the company’s artificial intelligence technology, users will be able to turn their profile photos into several-second animations. You will be able to choose from predefined animation modes and use photos uploaded to Facebook or images from your gallery.
Animation options include making a heart sign, wearing a party hat, using headphones
3D and anime style transformations are included. Meta announced that it will add new animation options throughout the year.
Things to consider for better results
Meta recommends the following criteria for the most accurate result: The person in the photo should be looking at the camera, the face should be clearly visible, and there should be no other objects in the person’s hand.
Once the animation is completed, the content can be shared directly to the main stream.
“Restyle” feature also comes
With the new update, an artificial intelligence tool called “Restyle” was also added to Facebook. Thanks to this feature, users will be able to redesign their stories and memories. Will be able to apply 3D, anime or different artistic styles. It will also be able to transform images with artificial intelligence-supported text commands.
Not just profile photos
Meta is gradually expanding its animation system. Animated backgrounds will soon be added to text posts, seasonal and specially designed animated themes will be available, and an animated background can be selected by clicking the “A” icon when creating a new text post.
Meta’s artificial intelligence strategy is growing
This innovation at Facebook is part of Meta’s AI strategy that it has been accelerating in recent years. Meta AI assistant in WhatsApp is one of the important examples of this transformation. However, the company’s artificial intelligence moves sometimes bring about privacy and competition discussions.
