Seen the new "AI Content" label on Instagram posts lately? Here's what it means and why you're seeing it

As AI content becomes more prevalent, Meta now labels content created or edited using AI. Unfortunately, some popular editing tools are also being flagged, which may reduce audience trust and engagement

This doesn’t mean you have to stop using your favourite editing tools! Feel free to continue editing your content however you'd like, but keep in mind that it may trigger an "AI Content" label
