Summary

Zuckerberg is pitching AI as the future of Meta's ad revenue, but their AI ad tools are generating errors like turning dresses into pants, amid broader industry backlash and new regulations in AI advertising.

Zuckerberg's out here telling everyone ai is the future of meta's ad revenue, reuters covered his latest ai pitch and called it more ad than substance. Fine tho, he is the ceo thats his job. Altho his own ai ad tools are currently generating gibberish copy and mangled products and business insider found one advertiser's dress ad came out as a shirt and trousers. Emarketer and mediapost both confirmed it and also some of these features are turning themselves on from bugs. So the guy is standing on stage telling investors ai is the future of advertising while the product turns dresses into trousers and its not just meta looking rough rn,wired ran a piece on backlash from people getting annoyed at mcdonald's and cocacola for slapping ai visuals into their ads and a gallup poll in the same piece found almost half of americans under 30 think gen ai does more harm than good at this point. Google also has started slapping ai labels on ads across search, youtube and snapchat has stopped showing fully ai generated content in discovery. Last but not the least NY made it a legal requirement to label ai people in ads now. Is this the new Metaverse?
