Meta Tweaks Its AI Labels: A Move Towards Clarity

4 min read

Meta has made a key change to how it labels AI-edited photos across its platforms. The label, which previously read “Made with AI,” has now been updated to “AI info.” This shift comes after photographers voiced concerns about the old label causing confusion.

In May, Meta began tagging photos with the “Made with AI” label. However, users found the label misleading, especially when minor AI-powered edits were involved. To address these concerns, Meta has now introduced the “AI info” label, aiming for better clarity and user understanding.

Meta’s Label Change: “Made with AI” to “AI info”

Meta has decided to change its label from “Made with AI” to “AI info” across all its apps. The new label aims to reduce confusion among users about the extent of AI used in editing photos. This change came after photographers complained that Meta’s labels were being applied to real photos with minor AI edits.

The initial label, “Made with AI,” caused confusion because it suggested that photos were entirely created by AI. However, this was not always the case. Users found that even minor edits using AI tools led to their photos being tagged. Meta acknowledged this issue and explained that the new “AI info” label would better represent the involvement of AI in photo editing. This shift is part of Meta’s effort to align its labels with users’ expectations.

Technology Behind the Labels

Meta is not altering the underlying technology used to detect AI in photos. The company relies on metadata standards like C2PA and IPTC to gather information on AI tools used in photo editing. For instance, if a photographer uses Adobe’s Generative AI Fill to remove objects, the photo might still carry the new “AI info” label.

Meta hopes the new label will help users understand that the image is not entirely created by AI. Instead, it may have been modified or enhanced using AI tools. This change does not solve the issue of entirely AI-generated photos going undetected, but it is a step towards better transparency.

Industry Standards and Challenges

Even though Meta is making an effort to clarify its labels, the company acknowledges that there are challenges in setting industry-wide standards. The “AI info” label does not specify the amount of AI editing done on an image.

Photographers using tools like Adobe’s software need to be aware that their images might be tagged on other services. This brings about the challenge of different platforms having varying guidelines for AI use in photography.

Meta’s Statement on the Change

Meta’s updated blog post noted that the previous labels did not align well with user expectations. “Like others across the industry, we’ve found that our labels based on these indicators weren’t always aligned with people’s expectations and didn’t always provide enough context,” the company stated.

Meta spokesperson Kate McLaughlin told TechCrunch, “‘AI Info’ can encompass content that was made and/or modified with AI. The hope is that this is more in line with people’s expectations, while we work with companies across the industry to improve the process.”

This statement emphasizes Meta’s ongoing efforts to better align their practices with what users expect and understand about AI involvement in photo editing.

User Reactions and Feedback

User feedback played a significant role in this label change. Photographers were vocal about their concerns, mentioning that the “Made with AI” label was misleading.

The new “AI info” label aims to address these concerns by providing a clearer indication of AI involvement. Meta is trying to balance transparency with fairness to photographers who use AI minimally in their editing workflows.

Future of AI in Photography

The change from “Made with AI” to “AI info” marks a significant step in how social media platforms handle AI-generated content. This new approach could influence other platforms to adopt similar practices, fostering more transparency in the industry.

However, it also highlights the need for continuous improvement and adaptation of guidelines as AI technology evolves. Both photographers and platforms will need to stay informed and adaptable to these changes.

Conclusion of the Shift

In summary, Meta’s change from “Made with AI” to “AI info” is intended to provide clearer information about the use of AI in photo editing. The new label aims to align better with user expectations and reduce confusion.

While this change is a step forward, it does not address all issues related to AI-generated content. Continuous efforts and industry-wide collaboration are necessary for further improvements.
