I received a message from Meta this morning about them wanting to use my work (text, images, videos and gifs) to feed and train their upcoming AI. I was offered a form ,which I had to fill out, to object. I do facebook on a laptop or pc, never ohone so I saw the notification in stantly. Reading up on this at reddit it appreared that people doing facebook on a phone struggled to see, reply and send in the objection form. If you are a digital creator and not prepared to let them use your creative work for free, you can object. My objection was honored within the second, maybe because I am protected by the (EU and GB)/UK GDPR) laws.
