🤖 Meta, Why You Always Lying

Ah, the age-old dance of "opting out," where tech companies lead, and we try not to step on their toes as we follow along.

Artists thought they finally had a shot at calling the tune when Meta introduced a data deletion request form for its generative AI models.

But if you've heard the chorus of frustration from artists who've tried to use it—spoiler alert—it's not a Billboard chart-topper.

"It was horrible," says illustrator Mignon Zakuga, and she's not talking about her latest art critique.

Meta's form-letter response is a roundabout way of saying, "We can't help you unless you prove we've used your data," which is like asking someone to prove they've been abducted by aliens when the government won't confirm that Area 51 exists.

Meta concedes that their so-called "opt-out" form is not an opt-out at all.

"We don’t currently offer a feature for people to opt out," states Meta spokesperson Thomas Richards.

It's the equivalent of a magician saying, "I'm going to make this coin disappear," then tossing it behind the couch and shrugging.

So, is this a PR stunt?

It sure smells like it. But don't give Meta the stink-eye—almost all AI companies are in the same boat.

As the AI gold rush escalates, your data is the new California—everyone wants a piece, and opt-out options are as imaginary as finding a golden nugget in your backyard.

So, for now, artists and the rest of us are left swinging our pickaxes at a mountain of data, hoping to hit something other than fool's gold.

“Instead of me attending, now I just send my Wudpecker notetaker to the meetings.”

With Wudpecker, stay ahead of the curve and never miss a beat, even when you miss a meeting. Outsourcing your attendance has never been this seamless.

Now you can get stuff done instead of being in could-have-been-an-email meetings.
