WhatsApp, a Meta-owned instant messaging application, recently started rolling out Meta AI for its users in India. Days after release, the company is now working on a feature to let users generate images of themselves with the help of the AI model, according to WABetaInfo. The feature is expected to be available in an upcoming version of WhatsApp on Android.

As per the report, the optional feature is undergoing development in the WhatsApp beta '2.24.14.13' version and not rolling out to testers.
