Intelligence Summary
Meta is rolling out its Muse Image model for AI image generation tied to Instagram content. For Instagram users with public accounts, their photos can be used unless they explicitly opt out. The change affects people who have not adjusted privacy settings while using Instagram. This creates privacy and consent risk, even if the content is publicly visible. Users who want to prevent their images from being reused for AI should check and enable Meta’s opt-out controls.
