On Meta, your creative now carries its own audience.
On October 19, Meta added an option that lets advertisers set an age range and gender for each ad creative inside one ad set (Meta for Developers). Meta's own example: retirement-planning videos for people aged 50 to 65, savings-account videos for everyone.
So the question is no longer only "who is this ad set for?" It is "who is each of these ads for?"
That is a creative question, and most teams answer it by instinct.
Before you split your next ad set by creative:
→ Which of your current ads actually win with which age group?
→ Which visuals and hooks only work for one audience?
→ Which ads are you about to narrow that are winning with everyone?
Answer that from the data, element by element, and the targeting writes itself.
