Muse Image explained: Can Meta AI use your Instagram photos?

Meta has launched Muse Image, a new AI image-generation tool integrated into Meta AI, Instagram and WhatsApp. The feature can use publicly available Instagram photos as visual references to generate AI images, sparking concerns over privacy and consent. Meta says users can opt out through Instagram's settings, but the change applies only to future AI-generated content. The debate around Muse Image underscores a larger challenge of balancing AI innovation with privacy and consent.
