Before you publish on Facebook

Instagram, Facebook & Threads (Meta)

Meta shows an 'AI info' label on Facebook, Instagram and Threads, based on creator self-disclosure or on industry signals it detects in the file.

What must be labelled
Organic posts with photorealistic video or realistic-sounding audio that was digitally created or altered. Meta may add a more prominent label to high-risk content that could materially deceive the public on an important matter.
How to disclose
Use Meta's AI disclosure and label tool when posting (in Instagram it is an 'AI label' option on the share screen; wording differs between apps).
