Whether you like it or not, the world has decided to embrace artificial intelligence fully.
That means theres AI infused into everything, even your favorite messaging app.
One of those apps is likely one of Metas properties: WhatsApp, Facebook, or Instagram.
Image artificially generated through Facebook Messenger
Soon, you might interface with one of them to generate an image.
I got to try this out at Meta Connect, hosting demonstrations on Samsung Galaxy S22s.
The demos also showed off Llama 3.2s image generation capabilities.
These new models are Metas first major vision models to understand images and text within a dialogue.
So far, its nothing I havent already done with Googles AI.
(Im prepping for Halloween.)
It depicted a stereotypically nuclear family: a mom, a dad, and a young child.
Everyone in the photos had a Sonic costume on.
The mom in the photo was Knuckles, the dad was Sonic, and the kid was Tails.
It produced a photo with another boy, changing the scope of the entire image completely.
I got annoyed at this point in the demonstration, so I decided to try a different approach.
It worked as directed, so I asked Meta to change the post to flying.
Thats how I ended up with the header image above.
It somehow evolved from a family to a man dressed as Sonic and three other children.
Ultimately, I didnt get what I envisioned.
Perhaps I should have been as detailed as possible to have that image generated a certain way.
But can you blame me?
This AI stuff is as new to me as it is to the rest of the world.
