内容总结：

近日，Meta公司面向美国与加拿大地区的Facebook用户推出一项可选人工智能功能，声称能将用户相册中的照片和视频优化为"更值得分享的内容"。该功能仅针对手机本地相册中未上传的素材，用户授权后系统将自动筛选相册内容，将未发布内容上传至Meta云端服务器，并从"淹没在截图、收据和随手拍中的海量素材"中智能推荐值得编辑或制作拼贴照的影像。

值得注意的是，当用户使用AI工具对推荐内容进行编辑或最终分享至社交平台时，其上传的相册内容将可能被用于优化Meta的AI模型。Meta发言人明确表示，仅完成功能授权不会触发AI训练，但若对系统推荐内容进行AI编辑或公开分享，则相关素材可能被用于技术优化。

这并非Meta首次尝试获取用户未公开内容。去年该公司已承认使用2007年以来成年用户在Facebook与Instagram发布的公开照片和文本来训练AI模型。目前新功能正处于推广阶段，虽然官方承诺不会将相关素材用于广告定向，但其隐私政策中仍保留将用户数据云端存储超过30天的权限。

该功能被定位为"帮助摄影爱好者优化作品"的创意工具，未来数月将在北美地区逐步上线。用户授权界面将明确提示"允许云端处理相册内容以生成创意建议"，但关于AI训练条款的具体提示方式尚未公开说明。

Meta公司近日面向美国与加拿大用户推出一项可选功能，声称能通过人工智能技术让用户的照片视频"更值得分享"。该功能的特别之处在于：它只针对手机相册中未发布的素材，而非已上传至Facebook的内容。若用户启用此功能，Meta的人工智能将扫描其手机相册，把未发布内容上传至Meta云端，并从中挖掘出"隐藏于截图、收据和随手拍中的精彩影像"。经AI推荐的修图建议或拼贴作品可供用户保存或分享。

这项可选功能同时为Meta提供了利用用户相册优化其人工智能系统的机会。

若您对Facebook试图查看未发布照片的做法感到似曾相识，可能是因为我们在六月曾报道过相关测试。当时该公司声称未使用用户私藏照片训练AI，但未排除未来这样做的可能性。如今未来已至——在特定条件下，Meta确实计划用您的照片训练AI。在周五的功能公告中，Meta声明："除非您使用我们的AI工具编辑或分享这些内容，否则我们不会动用您相册中的素材来改进AI系统。"

针对"The Verge"的求证——是否启用该功能即意味着授权Meta使用相册训练AI，以及具体从何时开始动用未发布照片——Meta发言人玛丽·梅尔吉佐澄清："通过此功能上传至云端的相册内容仅用于生成推荐，不会直接用于AI训练。唯有当您使用AI工具编辑推荐内容或将编辑成果发布至Facebook时，才可能被用于改进AI系统。"

据此说明，Meta会将用户照片收集存储于云端并由AI系统进行分析，但据该公司当前政策，除非用户进行后续操作，否则不会用于AI训练。目前该功能宣称将"持续从您的相册选择内容上传至云端"；而六月时Meta曾透露可能将部分数据保留超过30天。该公司保证这些素材"不会被用于广告定向"。

去年Meta曾承认，其已悄然使用2007年以来成年用户在Facebook与Instagram发布的所有公开照片及文本来训练AI模型。

根据Facebook最新公告，用户将收到"是否允许云端处理相册内容以获取创意建议"的提示，但目前尚不清楚该提示是否会明确告知用户此功能可能用于训练AI。该公司表示，该功能旨在帮助热衷拍照但希望提升画面质量的用户，以及没有时间精心创作内容的用户。这项功能将在未来数月内逐步推广。

Meta has rolled out an opt-in AI feature to its US and Canadian Facebook users that claims to make their photos and videos more “shareworthy.” The only catch is that the feature is designed for your phone’s camera roll — not the media you’ve already uploaded to Facebook. If you opt in, Meta’s AI will comb through your camera roll, upload your unpublished photos to Meta’s cloud, and surface “hidden gems” that are “lost among screenshots, receipts, and random snaps,” the company says. Users will be able to save or share the suggested edits and collages.
Facebook’s new button lets its AI look at photos you haven’t uploaded yet
The opt-in feature will also give Meta a chance to improve its AI using your camera roll.

If Facebook wanting to look at your unpublished photos sounds familiar, it might be because we wrote about an early test in June. At that time, the company claimed unposted, private photos were not being used to train Meta’s AI, but it declined to rule out whether it would do so in the future.
Well, the future is now, and it sure sounds like Meta wants to train its AI on your photos — under certain conditions. In the Friday announcement of the feature, Meta says, “We don’t use media from your camera roll to improve AI at Meta, unless you choose to edit this media with our AI tools, or share.”
The Verge asked Meta to confirm: Meta will use your camera roll to train its AI if you choose to use this feature, right? We also asked for clarification on when Meta begins using your unpublished photos to train its AI. Does it happen when you opt into the new feature? After you choose to edit something with the tool? Or only after you choose to share the resulting creation?
Meta spokesperson Mari Melguizo sent us the following clarification: “This means the camera roll media uploaded by this feature to make suggestions won’t be used to improve AI at Meta. Only if you edit the suggestions with our AI tools or publish those suggestions to Facebook, improvements to AI at Meta may be made.”
So, Meta will collect and store your photos in the cloud and Meta’s AI will get to look at them, but the company won’t use them to train their AI unless you take an additional action — at least for now, according to Meta. Today, the feature says it will “select media from your camera roll and upload it to our cloud on an ongoing basis”; in June, Meta told us that it might hold onto some of that data for longer than 30 days. The company claims your media “won’t be used for ad targeting.”
Last year, Meta acknowledged that it had already quietly trained its AI models on all public photos and text posted to Facebook and Instagram by adult users since 2007.
Facebook’s blog today shows that users will be asked if they want to “allow cloud processing to get creative ideas made for you from your camera roll.” It’s not yet clear if that prompt will also warn users that the feature may train Meta’s AI on your photos. The company says the feature is meant to help users who enjoy snapping pics but want to improve their photos before posting, or who don’t have time to “create something special.” Facebook says it’ll roll out the feature in the coming months.
