AMAZON is offering a free upgrade to millions of Fire TV owners and it can improve your home aesthetic.
The new feature is thanks to Amazon’s artificial intelligence updates and can be personalized to your liking.
Amazon is introducing a new AI Art feature to its Fire TV devices.
The update lets users create their own AI art masterpieces that can then be used as TV backgrounds.
Whether you want a medieval-style painting or something more futuristic displayed in your living room, all you need to do is access the AI feature.
“Whether you’re inspired by classic watercolors, oil paintings or colorful dreamscapes, you can now bring your artistic imagination to life using just your voice, your Fire TV, and a new feature powered by artificial intelligence (AI),” Amazon explained.
You can use your voice to create your own artwork by talking to Alexa.
The smart home assistant connected to your Fire TV will follow your instructions.
To get started, ask Alexa to open the Ambient Experience on your Fire TV.
Next, give the assistant a prompt such as “Alexa, create a background of a medieval castle on Mars.”
Then sit back and watch as the AI conjures up your desired image on your Fire TV Screen.
The feature relies on a fine-tuned version of Amazon’s Titan Image Generator model.
” You can even personalize your creations by selecting additional modifiers in a range of artwork styles, such as pixel art, oil painting, watercolor, colored pencil, Cubist, and others.
“Once you’re happy with your creation, you can use your unique image as a background on your Fire TV and save it to your Amazon Photos account,” Amazon said.
This AI feature is available now for certain Fire TV owners in the US.
You’ll need a Fire TV Stick 4K Max (2nd Gen) or Fire TV Omni QLED Series to access it.
“As with any new feature, we invite customers to experiment with AI Art and share feedback as we continue to refine this new feature.
“After creating an image, you can give a “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” to let us know what you think and share more about your experience,” Amazon added.
The tech giant also provided the following list of questions you can ask the AI:
- Alexa, create an image of Stonehenge at sunset
- Alexa, create a background of a rapid river in Antelope Canyon
- Alexa, create a background of a medieval castle on Mars
- Alexa, create an image of a colorful sci-fi landscape
- Alexa, create an image of a tranquil lake surrounded by mountains
- Alexa, create a background of a cyberpunk city in Yosemite
- Alexa, create a painting of a fairy landscape
- Alexa, create an image of cherry blossoms in the snow
- Alexa, create a picture of a treehouse in the forest
- Alexa, create a background of an underwater village
- Alexa, create a picture of a hidden temple in a rainbow jungle
