🎨 Meta Uses Instagram Photos to Train Muse AI
The company has launched the Muse Image model, which uses photos and videos from public Instagram accounts as references for generating new images. All users with public profiles were automatically included in this feature.
🌍 Meta is setting a new standard for data usage by implementing an aggressive automatic opt-in strategy for user content to train its generative models.
👤 Your public photos may now become the basis for others' AI-generated images without your knowledge. To disable this, go to Settings and activity -> Sharing and reuse -> Posts and videos.
