⚡ Meta Opposes AI Usage in Social Ads
posted 7 Nov 2023
Meta has introduced a ban on using artificial intelligence to create ads
related to critical social issues, including politics, healthcare,
employment, real estate, and finance.
The
duration of these restrictions is uncertain, but Meta is focused on
curbing misinformation and potential public sentiment manipulation
through AI. They plan to perform a comprehensive risk assessment and
establish protocols for responsible technology use in these
public-interest areas.
This
move follows Google's prior restrictions on AI-generated political ads
to protect against interference and manipulative messaging during
elections.
In
a broader context, tech companies are actively discussing AI's role in
information, advocating for universal guidelines with regulatory bodies.
