WhatsApp is testing new AI tool called 'Imagine Me',

Meta-owned popular messaging platform, WhatsApp recently introduced Meta AI chatbots in select markets, including India.

Now, it has begun testing a new artificial intelligence (AI) feature that can allow users to create personalised stickers or AI avatars with their clicked images.

WABetaInfo spotted this ‘Imagine Me’ feature via a leaked screenshot, and it allows users to generate images of themselves using the Meta AI chatbot.

The messaging service could then ask users to upload a handful of selfies when they first opt into the feature and it will let users create AI-generated stickers of themselves.

This feature could provide a creative alternative to the usual profile pictures by letting users personalise their profile pictures with AI-generated avatars.

Further, WABetaInfo has confirmed that it discovered this upcoming AI-based 'Imagine Me' feature in the latest WhatsApp beta for Android 2.24.14.13 update.

Additionally, the ‘Imagine Me’ feature will reportedly be optional and would require WhatsApp users to manually enable it in settings before it can be used.

 This tool will also offer customisable backgrounds and locations, such as forests, space, etc., to enhance their profile avatars.
