The instant messaging service Snapchat is gearing up to further expand its creative artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities through its new feature named Dreams.
Earlier this year, Snapchat introduced a chatbot named My AI, powered by generative AI technology, offering users unique features like sending Snap snippets of their activities to receive creatively generated snapshots in return, maintaining the conversation flow.
With the upcoming generative AI feature Dreams, Snapchat will once again empower users with AI-generated images, but this time, these images will "immerse you and your friends in imaginative backgrounds".
Snapchat is working on developing features that allow users to capture or upload personal images, which the app then utilizes to create new images for users in scenarios they envision, this insight comes from the findings of app developer and researcher Steve Mouser.
In particular, last month, a mobile application named Remini gained popularity, enabling users to upload their selfies to acquire professionally polished images for their LinkedIn profiles without having to pay for a professional photoshoot.
