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.

Microsoft resumes auto-install of Microsoft 365 Copilot – Here’s how admins can opt out!

The automatic installation of the Copilot app, which did not ask users to opt in, started at the beginning of December but was temporarily disabled due to “a technical issue”. Unfortunately, the tech giant has now resumed this. This means that if your organisation uses Windows and is running Microsoft 365 Apps Version 2511 or later, the Copilot app will automatically install in the background. Admins must follow these steps to prevent the automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot app.
