Zuckerberg pitches AI as the future of Meta's ad revenue, but tools are glitching: generating gibberish copy and turning a dress ad into a shirt and trousers per Business Insider. Public backlash is rising, with a Gallup poll showing nearly half of under-30s think GenAI does more harm than good. McDonald's and Coca-Cola faced backlash for AI visuals, while Google and Snapchat are adding labels or restricting AI content. NY now legally requires labeling AI people in ads.
