Facebook and Instagram use AI systems to personalize content for their billions of users. To increase transparency and user control, Meta (formerly Facebook) is introducing system cards that explain how AI ranks content and shares information about predictive models.
They also use signals to identify and remove harmful content but avoid disclosing exploitable signals. The “Why Am I Seeing This?” feature is being expanded, allowing users to understand content recommendations. Customization controls are being centralized, enabling users to shape their experiences. Tools like “Interested” and “Not Interested” on Instagram and the “Show more, Show less” feature on Facebook provide feedback and influence content visibility.
Meta is committed to open research and innovation, having released over 1,000 AI models to researchers. They plan to introduce Meta’s Content Library and API, providing comprehensive access to public content for research purposes. Through transparency, customization, and research support, Meta aims to address user concerns, promote responsible AI development, and empower users with more insight and control over their content experience.
Facebook aims to gather constructive feedback by introducing these updates to researchers during the early stages of development. This approach enables Facebook to refine and improve its tools to better meet the needs of researchers.
