Meta, they announced this, this Muse image, Muse AI and this is like a major PSA to all Instagram users because now if you’re public, actually within it and I did it myself, you can turn on or off whether or not this meta AI can use your your likeness, Dan. So break this all down for us and how this plays into Meta’s long-term plan, what what users need to know now?
00:26 Dan
Yeah, if you have a a public account uh and you’re not some, you know, an influencer or something like that, A, set your account to private. There’s really no reason to be public unless you want weirdos messaging you on on Instagram. Um and hey, if that’s your bag, that’s your bag, whatever. Um but what this does is uh it does allow people to, you know, kind of take an image of you and then uh generate something based on it. Uh and so, you know, it’s really I think a way for uh Meta to kind of separate their image generating uh software from the likes of, you know, Google’s for instance. Um, you know, their Nano bananas has been really uh I mean it blew up last year. They have the sequel to it now. Uh the the newer AI version model version of that. Uh and so this is I think Meta’s way of saying, ‘Hey, look, we have all of this, you know, all these photos, all these things. This is what you can do with our image generating tool.’ Um, yeah, not not something that I think uh you know, folks may necessarily want. Um, if you do have uh your account set to public, uh you can turn this off in the privacy settings. Uh if you want to set it to private, you can also just quickly set it uh to private in the privacy settings. My account’s been private forever because I just want to look at cats and, you know, recipes or whatever.

Send some DMs to some good friends. Let’s say if you’re close.
01:47 Dan
Yeah, exactly. Yes.
