Explained in plain English

What are 'bots' and 'AI content'?

Bots are automated programs, often used on social media for repetitive tasks, sometimes creating fake engagement. AI content refers to text, images, or videos generated by artificial intelligence. Critics argue Instagram should prioritise tackling these issues, which can spread misinformation or dilute genuine user experience, over just changing its logo.
