Zuckerberg unveils AI Studio for Instagram creating personal avatars

The Mark Zuckerberg-led company Meta announces the inauguration of the new AI feature for Instagram users in the United States.

This new feature allows users to create AI versions of themselves on Instagram or on the web with a new tool called AI Studio, The Verge reported.

Additionally, this update is designed especially for creators and business owners so that their AI profiles can communicate with their followers on their behalf.

These AI profiles can easily respond and react with different emojis to the comments and direct messages (DM) on their author’s account.

Meanwhile, to use this AI profile, “creators can customise their AI based on things like their Instagram content, topics to avoid, and links they want it to share. The post goes on to say that creators will be able to toggle things like auto-replies from their AI and dictate which specific accounts they’re allowed to interact with,” the company wrote in a blog post.

Following the creation of Character.AI and Replika, AI Studio allows users to develop new characters that can be used in other applications of Meta.

However, Meta allowed many celebrities to create AI versions of themselves with the same likeness but different names. This was the case because the robot can make statements that can be problematic for well-known individuals.
