Meta has launched a new AI image generator that allows anyone to create AI images with your Instagram photos.

@lauren @newsguyusa It'll be back, these shady features _always_ come back once the heat dies down.

@newsguyusa One of the reasons I left facebook years ago is they regularly just reset you setting to whatever they felt like. Opt out of something? They would reset it to whatever they felt like. Got where I was checking settings once a week. It is beyond me why anyone puts up with facebook.

The answer is simple: ditch Instagram.

Meta es parte de la administración Trump. La mejor opción es no usar nada de Meta, sin duda @newsguyusa

@newsguyusa YOU CAN OPT-OUT BY NOT HAVING AN INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT. Just saying.

@Viss "Missed the mark" probably means "lawsuits ahead". @newsguyusa

Oh the Irony that the Washington Post is telling you that!

Good news is that they pulled it.

Bad news is that during its run, META probably sucked all of the existing images that were in Instagram and fed them to their LLM with the excuse that there were people who hadn't turned their theft feature off, and that of course for them means that they agreed to have all of their shit stolen.

@newsguyusa It's very easy: Delete your account. Oh, relief - they removed that function again after critisism.
