Coca-Cola fans can now create their own holiday cards using the power of AI. Available through December 26, the digital card generator runs on the AI technologies GPT-4 and Dall-E 2. Creators can design their card with the brand’s most recognized visual assets, from a 1931 Haddon Sundblom depiction of Santa Claus to the polar bear family introduced in 1993. The cards are shareable on email, social media, and WhatsApp.
“We are almost democratizing this tool for people to connect in a more personalized way,” said Pratik Thakar, Global Head of Generative AI at Coca-Cola. “Because the way you prompt and write messages is unique, what you create never gets created again.”
The Coca-Cola card generator is available on the company-hosted site Create Real Magic.
