10-3-25 - Instagram Explains How They Keep Teens Safe but there's more to it than that

from The Instagram Stories - Social Media News · host Daniel Hill

Today on the show the Head of Instagram explains how they keep teens safe on the platform. However I think we all know that once you hit 3 billion monthly active users, you need to figure out how to get to 4 billion, and teens who don't have Instagram are the perfect potential audience. Also Sarah Wynn Williams, former Director of Policy at Facebook, explains how Meta targets ads to vulnerable teens and it's disgusting. Additionally Ashley Coffey and I get into this week's AI news, including social media apps with feeds that are 100% AI. Links:Instagram: Adam Mosseri on Teens (Instagram)Meta: Sarah Wynn Williams on 60 Minutes (YouTube) AI News:Meta: Meta plans to sell targeted ads based on data in your AI chats (TechCrunch)AI apps with social media feeds - Meta AI app gets Vibes and ChatGPT launches SoraSign Up for The Weekly Email Roundup: NewsletterLeave a Review: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Me on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@danielhillmedia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
