WhatsApp New AI-Powered Tool: Meta-owned WhatsApp is introducing a new AI image generation feature for status updates, allowing select users to create and share custom AI-generated visuals, as per WABetaInfo report. The new feature is powered by Meta’s advanced generative technology. It transforms simple text prompts into creative, shareable images directly within the app. However, the latest WhatsApp versions for Android and iOS are confirmed to support this feature. The new feature is currently accessible to select users, with a broader rollout expected in the coming weeks.

Moreover, WhatsApp is working on a new Username Reservation feature that will allow users to secure their desired usernames before the feature officially launches. This addition aims to simplify the process of claiming unique usernames in advance, ensuring users can reserve their preferred identities ahead of the public rollout.

Adding further, WhatsApp is testing a new anti-spam tool designed to curb unwanted messages from businesses and unknown contacts. The Meta-owned messaging platform, with over 2 billion global users, is reportedly experimenting with monthly limits on outbound messages to non-contacts who don’t respond. The move is intended to significantly reduce promotional spam and enhance the overall user experience.
