Meta Rolls Out ‘Imagine Me’ in India to Let Users Create AI-Powered Self-Images with Simple Prompts

Meta has officially launched its much-anticipated AI feature Imagine Me in India.This new tool uses AI to make fun and creative photographs of themselves based on a simple text prompt.The tool allows you to imagine yourself as a rock star, a superhero, or even floating on a cloud.

The Imagine Me feature is now available across Meta's platforms, including Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, and the Meta AI app.  Initially, it will be available for Android users, with an iOS release following shortly.

The app works by evaluating your facial features and arranging them in AI-generated situations based on the prompt you provide. For example, typing "Imagine me as a superhero" may result in an image of you flying through the air wearing a cape. Similarly, prompts such as "Imagine me at a beach party" or "Imagine me in ancient Egypt" will change your face into unique, stylised images of yourself in those contexts.

To get started, users must type "Imagine me as" in the Meta AI conversation, which will then request permission to access and scan their face. After capturing a few photos from different angles, you're ready to start creating customised AI images.

Meta also kept privacy in mind when building this function. It's free to use and only works with your registered face. You cannot create photos of other persons, and each account can only register one face.The photographs also appear clearly artificial, avoiding misunderstanding with real images and preventing misuse.

 Meta's Imagine Me combines creativity, artificial intelligence, and personalisation in a fun and responsible way, allowing users to explore different versions of themselves one prompt at a time.
