Meta AI on Instagram: What It Does, Why People Are Concerned & How to Manage It
Meta
AI was launched on Instagram in April 2024. While many users found it
helpful and innovative, others raised concerns. In today’s AI-driven world, its
increasing presence can feel overwhelming. If you’ve wondered why Meta AI is on
Instagram or how to turn it off, you’re not alone.
Meta AI acts as a free assistant within Instagram. You can
chat with it (@Meta AI), ask questions, generate AI images, and even use it to
create stickers or edit visuals. It's designed to simplify content
creation—especially for businesses and creators. Want to write a caption or
generate hashtags? Meta AI can help.
However, there are drawbacks. Some users report that Meta
AI’s answers aren’t always accurate, AI images often miss the mark, and its
presence can feel intrusive. What’s more concerning are the privacy
implications. Meta AI learns from user inputs and collects some third-party
data—raising questions about how much information it actually gathers.
Currently, there’s no official
way to turn off Meta AI on Instagram. But you can mute it by opening
your DMs, searching for @Meta AI, opening the chat, and muting it. You can also
delete the chat thread afterward. For data privacy, go to your profile →
Settings → About → Privacy Policy → “How Meta uses information…” and fill out
the opt-out form.
Want more control? In the “Accounts Center,” you can manage
how businesses share your off-Instagram activity with Meta.
Meta AI isn’t available on desktop yet, but as it evolves,
it’s crucial to stay informed. Use its features mindfully, limit what you
share, and take steps to protect your data.
