Instagram Launches AI-Powered Backdrop Feature for Stories

The new tool, currently available only in the U.S., allows users to generate creative backgrounds using text prompts.

Instagram has launched a new AI-powered feature called Backdrop that allows users to change the backgrounds of their Instagram Stories.
The feature is currently only available to users in the United States.
Users can generate new backgrounds by entering prompts such as 'Surrounded by puppies' or 'On the edge of an erupting volcano'.
Once a Story with a generated background is shared, a 'Try it' sticker appears on the Story, encouraging other users to try the feature.
The launch of Backdrop is part of Meta's ongoing efforts to integrate AI tools into its social media platforms.
