Meta's new AI, Muse, lets anyone edit your Instagram photos - Opt out now!
As the AI race continues, Meta’s latest attempt to keep up is its new AI image generator, Muse Image. This AI tool, available in Instagram, WhatsApp, and Meta's AI app, allows users to create AI-generated images or use AI to make edits on existing photographs. It’s not surprising that Meta has taken its AI capabilities a step too far by allowing Instagram users to manipulate other users' pictures with AI, if the user’s profile is set to public. Some Meta users might embrace AI’s image editing capabilities, but for others, the fact that someone could edit their images on Instagram with AI is enough of a concern to make them stop using Meta’s products altogether – and we don’t blame them!
