It seems like AI fever has taken over the world and Meta is no exception.
The company’s recent earnings report had Meta speaking about its highs and lows and how AI-based content is not going anywhere, at least for now. So in case you’re wondering about the great amount of AI spam on Meta’s leading apps, there is not going to be any change.
Meta’s future plans were laid down and it was astonishing to see how there was an overwhelming amount of AI. Zuckerberg expressed great excitement for this chance to help users through AI via his platforms.
He added that it’s not only about producing content but the entire experience that makes it worthwhile. Furthermore, Zuckerberg says Meta will soon include another kind of category on apps called AI summaries where existing material is pulled into one place using AI tech.
Zuckerberg says it’s all very exciting to see such changes on Threads, Instagram, and Facebook which contain user feeds. It would continue to evolve with time and become viral. But as reported by experts in the past, AI slop is a deceiving tactic used by some to make quick bucks through Facebook.
It gets powered by the app’s recommendation algorithms that boost content that wasn’t posted by friends or those you knew. So in reality, it’s like engagement bait added to feeds as it betters engagement and timing on these platforms. As revealed by Zuckerberg during his latest investors’ call, new AI generated feeds are designed using recommendations in mind.
Facebook began with friends and then evolved into your contacts posting material on the feed. Then an era came where they added creator content where not a lot of the ideas came from friends. In fact, it’s not even from those you know. It’s just those recommended by creators to determine what’s interesting and what’s not.
He’s right, today’s social media is hardly social. It’s all about content that’s not even made by humans most of the time. The rise in spam, AI influencers, and those people copying others’ ideas is the trend. So what’s the solution?
As per Facebook’s CEO, its creators adopt morale and know what’s wrong and what’s right. Until they don’t accept it, you cannot blame AI for the widespread content spread seen on feeds. Meta will continue to benefit from ads rolled against this content. To give you a better idea, more than 1M companies are generating more than 15M ads each month through generative AI.
