Meta has announced a new set of AI-powered services for Facebook and Instagram, geared straight at creators, advertisers, and brands.
Among the updates:
- Generative AI tools for image and video creation
- A “business AI assistant” to help optimise campaigns
- Enhanced tools for collaboration between creators and brands
Meta describes these new features as part of the “next chapter of AI-enabled performance,” adding to their existing Advantage+ portfolio.

What this means for Creators
You’ll find additional built-in creative tools (images and videos) within the platforms you already use. This reduces the barrier of experimenting, iterating quickly, and testing ideas.
Using these tools can enhance your pitch to brands by reducing outsourcing and increasing in-platform production.
However, new capabilities will most likely benefit authors who have already reached scale on the platforms. Edge developers will still have to compete for visibility.
What this means for entrepreneurs
Creating complementing plug-ins, templates, or supportive overlays for Meta’s AI technologies may become a niche.
Brands demand self-serve performance from Meta’s AI-powered creators, so integrate metrics and attribution accordingly.
For those developing AI tools outside of Meta, this increases the bar: capabilities that were once unique may now be standard.
