“This is the AI men actually use”: Meta ads pushed apps nudifying real teens
Ars Technica Ashley Belanger ● Covered by 2 sources
Meta removed some ads with AI-generated CSAM from Facebook and Instagram after reporting, but an investigation found it missed CSAM ads. Tech Transparency Project said Meta failed to detect 332 ads containing CSAM this year. As a result, the report alleges Meta’s detection and enforcement fell short, and it links the ads largely to China-made AI and “nudify” apps that digitally alter children’s images.
Why it matters
Meta dragged its feet removing ads that nudify young girls' Instagram pics.
