Pinterest says he is finally going to do something for the AI slop that has taken his platform.
After a growing volume of complaints, the social networking and image site announced a plan on Wednesday to start highlighting the images created and modified by AI. It will also introduce a new option that allows users to reduce the number of AI genetic pins they see.

AI technology has allowed bad actors to flood these platforms with false images drowned by the human content that people came to see, underestimating the overall experience. AI pins and other low quality AI contents-often referred to as “AI Slop”-have created a reaction between the faithful base of Pinterest.
Now, Pinterest says it will help users easier to identify what AI is and what it is not.
When users click on an image pin within walking distance, they will see a “modified” modified “AI” label in the lower left corner.
Creators will be able to attract Pinterest if their content has been incorrectly highlighted, according to the company.
Most importantly, Pinterest says it will give users more controlling how much AI content they see in an upcoming feature.
