TikTok will soon create AI-generated profile pictures at users' request,Watch FakeHub Originals Vol. 6 Online according to a leak first covered by The Verge.

The tool creates headshots in the same way you might create AI headshots on the Lensaapp or AI SuitUp. But, instead of generating a photo through a third party, TikTok's new feature will allegedly be built right into the app, The Vergereported. In screenshots shared from social media consultant Matt Navarra, it looks like the app will ask users to submit between three to 10 photos and it will create up to 30 avatars, but you can only use the tool once a day. Then, you can set it as your avatar, download them, post them — whatever your heart desires.

TikTok did not immediately respond to Mashable's request for comment, but it said in a statement to TechCrunch that the tool — which it calls an "experiment" — is already available in select regions.

"In a few select regions, we’re experimenting with a new way to create and share profile pictures with the TikTok community."

If you've been paying attention, this should come as no surprise. Social media platforms are all trying to dip their fingers into generative AI: Snapchat's divisive My AI, Meta's late scramble to AI, Artifact, the AI social media platform from the creators of Instagram, and more.
