Meta launches ‘Imagine Me' in India: How to create AI avatars on Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook
Create Images with Simple Text Prompts
'Imagine Me' lets users generate custom images by describing how they want to appear and where they want to be. The process involves interacting with Meta AI through chat on supported apps. Users start by typing 'Imagine me as' followed by a desired character or scenario, such as 'Imagine me as a 90s Hiphop star' or 'Imagine me as a Farmer on the moon.' The AI then asks for permission to analyse the user's facial data to create accurate images. To do this, users need to provide three selfies which show their front, left, and right profiles.

After uploading the photos and giving the prompt, Meta AI will then generate a unique image within seconds. Users can continue the interaction by sending new prompts to see themselves in different roles or settings. If they find the generated image unsatisfactory, the tool offers options to edit, regenerate, or remove the pictures. Users can also retake photos or disable the feature anytime.

However, images generated by this tool carry an AI watermark that says 'Imagined with AI' to indicate their origin. Meta is also planning to label other AI-generated images with an 'AI info' tag, following its updated policy for transparency in AI content.
How to Use 'Imagine Me' on Meta Platforms
Open Meta AI chat on WhatsApp, Facebook, or Instagram. Type 'Imagine me as' followed by your desired prompt and send it. Allow Meta AI to analyse your facial data by providing three selfies from different angles. Receive your AI-generated image and continue to experiment with other prompts. Edit, regenerate, or delete images as needed.
This feature offers a fresh way to bring imagination to life through AI, available now for users in India.

Meta appoints ChatGPT co-creator as Superintelligence Lab chief
Meta Platforms has appointed Shengjia Zhao, co-creator of ChatGPT, as chief scientist of its Superintelligence Lab, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said on Friday, as the company accelerates its push into advanced AI. "In this role, Shengjia will set the research agenda and scientific direction for our new lab working directly with me and Alex," Zuckerberg wrote in a Threads post, referring to Meta's Chief AI Officer Alexandr Wang, who Zuckerberg hired from startup Scale AI when Meta took a big stake in it. Zhao, a former research scientist at OpenAI, co-created ChatGPT, GPT-4 and several of OpenAI's mini models, including 4.1 and o3. He is among several researchers who have moved from OpenAI to Meta in recent weeks, part of a broader talent arms race as Zuckerberg aggressively hires from rivals to close the gap in advanced AI. Meta has been offering some of Silicon Valley's most lucrative pay packages and striking startup deals to attract top researchers, a strategy that follows the underwhelming performance of its Llama 4 model. Meta launched the Superintelligence Lab recently to consolidate work on its Llama models and long-term artificial general intelligence ambitions. Zhao is a co-founder of the lab, according to the Threads post, which operates separately from FAIR, Meta's established AI research division led by deep learning pioneer Yann LeCun. Zuckerberg has said Meta aims to build 'full general intelligence' and release its work as open source — a strategy that has drawn both praise and concern within the AI community.

‘War Cry': Angry OpenAI CEO Sam Altman responds to Mark Zuckerberg 'poaching' OpenAI employees, says ...
It appears that the competition for top artificial intelligence talent is not going to end anytime soon. Now OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has issued a fiery response to Meta's aggressive hiring of top AI talent, calling the escalating competition a 'war cry' and declaring: 'Winning is fun. And I expect to win.' Speaking at a recent podcast interview, Altman addressed the claims that Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg was using "mafioso poaching style," in order to poach top AI talent from rival companies. 'I mean, you know, they want to get into the AI game. I understand it. So, and if he's going to do this, he needs to hire some people. So, bring it,' Altman said. Angry OpenAI CEO Sam Altman responds to Mark Zuckerberg 'poaching' Earlier this month, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman for the first publicly addressed the aggressive hiring by Meta. Replying with a brief "fine" and "good" when asked about the talent battle with Mark Zuckerberg, Altman said he hasn't spoken to the Meta CEO since the poaching began. "We have, obviously an incredibly talented team, and I think they really love what they are doing. Obviously, some people will go to different places," Altman told reporters at the Sun Valley conference. "There's a lot of excitement, I guess you could say, in the industry. But no, I think we feel fine." As reported by Benzinga, at a recent podcast appearance, Altman said Meta's hiring tactics resemble 'mafioso' moves'.

Multiple online reports suggest that the Meta offered a compensation package of $20 million annually to reachers from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, and Apple. Notable hires include Apple's former Foundation Models head Ruoming Pang and seven OpenAI researchers specializing in large language models. Recently, Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth also acknowledged this rivalry. In a recent interview to CNBC, Andrew Bosworth, said, 'Sam neglected to mention that he's countering those offers,' referencing rumors of $100 million signing bonuses from OpenAI.
