After learning about the new emojis that will soon be able to be used in the chat app owned by Meta, an update is now being prepared to choose the best possible profile photo, especially if you do not want to use your own personal one and with the option that will now be given to use artificial intelligence generative for image creation. An image capture shows the interface and how it will be generated.
In this year in which artificial intelligence is taking over each of the technological giants that do not stop announcing new features to boost their experiences (we will have to see the impact they will have on the daily lives of millions of people), the app chat is introducing some new features, although very specific without being dominated by AI.
If stickers can already be generated with artificial intelligence, now WhatsApp is going to be updated with the ability to generate profile photos with AI. This new ability has been found in beta version 2.24.11.17 of WhatsApp and a screenshot has been shared from WaBetaInfo that shows part of how it works.

The tool would be available from profile photo settings and it would work in a similar way to the generation of stickers: the image is described with a prompt and the image would be created. It remains to be seen if it will imitate another of its recent innovations to generate images in real time from the chat with a contact (as described, the image is modified), although it is not yet available in all countries.
The artificial intelligence model is unknown that will be used to generate images in WhatsApp, but the logical thing is that it would use the same one that it is using to generate them from a chat. The best thing about this new experience is that it avoids generating one with AI from the chat, saving it and then uploading it as an image to the profile.
The objective of this new function, according to Android Police via WaBetaInfo, it is keep user privacy safe by avoiding uploading personal photos and always having the option to reflect your own personality or style. It is unknown if WhatsApp would already have this function ready to be deployed soon, like many others that are being tested and that could arrive at any time with the announcement of Mark Zuckerberg himself from his channel in the chat app or his Facebook account. or Instagram.
