Meta Restarts AI Training Using UK User Data
News summary

Meta Platforms is set to resume training its AI models using public content from adult users on Facebook and Instagram in the UK, following a suspension due to regulatory concerns. The company will exclusively utilize public posts, comments, photos, and captions, while ensuring that private messages and data from minors are excluded. This decision comes after positive discussions with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), which has now approved the initiative, providing clarity for Meta's data usage under 'Legitimate Interests'. Additionally, Meta is revising its AI content labeling system to differentiate between basic edits and advanced AI-generated modifications, addressing previous criticism from content creators. As part of this initiative, UK users will receive notifications regarding their data's use and how to opt-out if desired. This move reflects Meta's ongoing efforts to align with regulatory requirements and improve transparency about AI utilization on its platforms.
