Instagram to demote unlabelled AI-generated influencers

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Instagram is implementing a new policy requiring accounts featuring AI-generated personas to use a specific "AI-generated profile" label. Failure to comply will result in reduced reach for these accounts. This move addresses community concerns about misleading AI-generated influencers and aims to differentiate them from human creators, following reports of AI personas promoting products and spreading misinformation.
