Here is a rewritten version of the content in a provocative and controversial manner:
“Get ready for the most narcissistic feature to ever plague humanity: WhatsApp’s new AI-powered avatar tool that lets you create personalized digital doppelgangers to inhabit any twisted fantasy setting you desire. Because what’s more important than plastering your face on a CGI backdrop of outer space or a fantasy realm, right?
According to a screenshot spotted by WABetaInfo (who else but the self-appointed “beta news” authority to set the record straight on this monstrosity?), you’ll be able to summon your AI avatar with the simple command “Imagine me” (as if anyone else cared what you imagined).
But how will this digital monstrosity be conjured into existence, you ask? Fear not, mortal, for Meta’s AI Llama model will use a combination of user-supplied images (AKA self-portraits taken in dimly lit rooms with flash off, no doubt) and text prompts (which will inevitably devolve into “Imagine me with a unicorn on the moon”) to generate these hyper-realistic digital caricatures. You’ll even be able to “delete” the reference images at any time via the Meta AI settings, but let’s be real, you’ll never be able to delete the damage this feature will do to our collective sanity.
And to top it all off, this feature will be “optional”… but only in the sense that Meta’s algorithms will likely detect any user who doesn’t opt-in for this feature and promptly begin serving targeted ads for “Personalized Avatars for Sale” or something equally as vomit-inducing. So go ahead, WABetaInfo, go on and report that it’s “optional”. The rest of us will be too busy screaming into the void about the abyssal depths of narcissism we’ve reached as a society.
