Meta's AI Labeling Tool Mistakenly Tags Real Photos as 'Made by AI'

Photographers express frustration as Meta's detection system incorrectly labels genuine images, impacting their work.

Meta's AI content detection tool has been mislabeling real photos as AI-generated on platforms like Instagram and Facebook.
High-profile cases include an IPL victory photo and images by former White House photographer Pete Souza.
The issue arises from minor edits made using tools like Adobe's Generative Fill, which trigger the 'Made with AI' label.
Photographers are unable to remove the incorrect labels, causing widespread dissatisfaction and confusion.
Meta is working with industry partners to refine the labeling process and better reflect the actual use of AI in images.
