WIRED reported that Instagram users with public accounts are being automatically opted in to Meta’s new AI content‑reuse feature. Meaning: people could tag your profile in a prompt and generate images using your posts or likeness. Naturally, we were ready to talk about consent, trust, transparency and the U2‑album‑auto‑download trauma we all still carry. But then we checked for ourselves...

What is being reported and what we’re experiencing are two very different things. And honestly? That’s the real takeaway. In a world where AI evolves fast and headlines move even faster, it’s easy to react before verifying.

But digital literacy isn’t just about knowing how to use tools — it’s about knowing how to question them. Don’t take everything at face value. Do your own digging. Make up your mind for yourself.

We're still pro-AI. We’re still pro‑consent. We’re still pro‑transparency. We’re also pro‑verify.

If you want to confirm your own Instagram setup, here’s how:
✅ Open Instagram
✅ Tap your profile icon
✅ Tap the three lines (☰) in the top-right
✅ Scroll to Sharing and reuse
✅ Look for Allow people to use your content on Instagram and with AI features on Meta

Or switch your account to Private if you prefer maximum control.

The feature itself can be fun and creatively useful — AI remixes, playful reinterpretations, new ways to collaborate. But staying informed is always the best first step.

Stay curious. Stay empowered. And always double‑check your sources.

Forget the tech, the tools, the trends. This industry runs on people, product, and process — full stop. It’s about all of us trying to carve a little clarity out of the beautiful chaos we work in every day.

If we crossed paths at NECANN Boston, thanks for the candor, the curiosity, and the conversations that went way deeper than the show floor. Those are the moments that shape the work long after the badges come off.

A centuries-old industry is stepping into AI: Insurance. Wild? Yes. Surprising? Not really.

Companies have actually been insuring AI since 2018. And now, new startups are creating certification standards (AIUC-1) for AI systems. It tests concerns like safety, security, privacy, reliability.

So… why does this matter?

Because AI isn’t just a cool idea anymore. It’s being used in real businesses every single day.

A study from Ernst & Young found that 99% of companies surveyed said they’ve already lost money because of AI problems. Almost two-thirds lost more than $1 million.
The risks are real — and so is the demand.

More than 90% of businesses say they want insurance to protect them from AI mistakes.

Here’s the interesting part: insurance doesn’t just pay for problems. It often helps prevent them. Once upon a time, ideas from Benjamin Franklin helped shape building safety rules. Insurance companies also pushed for seatbelts in cars.

In other words, insurance has a history of making new things safer.

So maybe this isn’t about being scared of AI. Maybe it’s about growing up with it.

If AI can be insured, how does that make you feel about using it?

As government regulation lags, some insurance companies see a business case for pushing AI companies to minimize risk and adopt stronger guardrails.
