Snapchat Reserves the Right to Use AI-Generated Images of Your Face in Ads (www.404media.co)

Snapchat is reserving the right to put its users’ faces in ads, according to terms of service related to its “My Selfie” tool (formerly “AI Selfies”), which allows users and their friends to create AI-generated images trained on their selfies.

Users have the option to opt out of this by toggling off a “feature” in the app called “See My Selfie in Ads,” but according to 404 Media’s testing this feature is on by default.

I think i still have an account of it, but I haven't agreed to anything, so I should be good, right...? Anyone know?

You think that will stop them? They'll just do it and pay a comparatively small fine to the government in a decade after they get around to investigating it. And that's the best case scenario. More realistically nothing will ever happen.

Yeah i fear that... i should probably just delete my account

That won't stop them either. They'll just use it anyway. These companies never delete anything they might be able to use. At least not willingly.
