A bagel that needed a few more minutes. And maybe a fact-check.
Summary
SAM 3 is Meta's advanced AI segmentation model that enables users to identify and isolate objects in images and videos using multiple prompting methods. The model supports text prompts for masking objects based on descriptions, exemplar prompts where users draw boxes around example objects, and visual prompts with positive/negative clicks for precise segmentation. SAM 3 maintains interactivity by allowing follow-up prompts to correct mistakes or add missing objects. The technology will soon be integrated into Instagram Edits and Vibes on the Meta AI app.
