Meta Opts Every Public Instagram Face Into Its AI Tool
SAG-AFTRA and CAA are telling members to manually opt out, since Muse Image already lets strangers insert your likeness by default.
- Muse Image lets users @-mention a public Instagram account to insert that face into AI images.
- SAG-AFTRA issued an official statement urging members and users to opt out of the feature.
- CAA and privacy advocates joined the criticism, calling the default-on setting an exploitation of public accounts.
