Meta has announced that it will bring AI-powered video editing features to Instagram in 2025. These features, based on Meta’s Movie Gen research, will allow creators to seamlessly edit their videos, change backgrounds, and even alter their appearance with the help of AI.
Instagram head Adam Mosseri teased the new tools in a short video, demonstrating how creators could change outfits, add accessories, and modify their surroundings with ease. The transitions in the video appeared smooth and natural, suggesting a high level of realism for the AI-powered edits.
This announcement comes shortly after OpenAI released its own video generation model, indicating a growing trend of AI integration in video editing and creation tools. Meta has expressed its ambition for its AI assistant to be widely adopted, and the introduction of these features on Instagram could significantly expand its reach.
While an exact release date for the Movie Gen features on Instagram has not been confirmed, Mosseri’s announcement suggests that creators can expect to see these tools sometime in 2025.
