Instagram is Meta's social media platform that has recently become a primary distribution channel for the company's generative AI capabilities. The platform now offers AI image generation and editing through the Muse Image model, AI-powered effects for Stories, and integration with Meta AI chatbot features, though Meta previously paused an "Imagine" image generation feature following user backlash before relaunching with Muse Image.
