The Screen Actors Guild‑American Federation of Television and Radio Artists is advising members to opt out of Meta's Muse Image and is urging all Instagram users to secure their accounts because the tool draws on tagged public Instagram photos by default.The Creative Artists Agency reiterated demands for documented consent, default protections, clear labeling of AI outputs and monitoring tools, while Meta says Muse excludes private accounts and users under 18 and that adult public account holders can opt out via a "sharing and reuse" toggle.Privacy experts warn that the opt‑out is buried and confusing, that children who appear in public photos remain at risk, and that
Muse Image outputs can stay online indefinitely, prompting industry groups to press regulators for clearer rules on consent and remedies.
