Snapchat is ??? ?????? ??????? ???????? ?? ????????barreling ahead with generative AI features with a new selfie tool called Dreams.
With Dreams, Snapchatters can turn selfies in fantastical versions of themselves, like a mermaid, an elf, or a knight chilling with dragons. You can access this feature by going to Memories and tapping the tab for Dreams. From there, you can choose different AI-generated selfie creations. The first eight Dreams are free, but after that, it costs $1 as an in-app purchase. If this sounds familiar, that's because Dreams is similar to Lensa and the new BeFake, which are apps specifically for creating AI-augmented selfies.
This isn't the first time in recent weeks that Snapchat has made news because of its AI features. Recently, users experienced their My AI seemingly going rogue. My AI reportedly responded to users with an error message and then posted a Story to its profile of what looks like a ceiling. Snapchat eventually resolved the issue, citing an outage and confirming a glitch, but not before freaking out Snapchatters.
