Meta is pushing AI ads hard — and causing chaos for brands

Meta is urging advertisers to use its AI tools, but reports of chaotic outputs—twisted limbs, gibberish text, and altered products—are creating reputational risk. Meta’s stance is that issues stem from advertisers’ inputs rather than its systems. Overall, the news is a modest headwind centered on AI performance/brand trust rather than a quantified financial shock.
