Instagram is expanding its AI age-checking measures to ensure that teens engage with appropriate online content and have access to safety systems. The platform utilizes an AI model that assesses various signals, such as profile information and user interactions, to determine user age. Additionally, Instagram is experimenting with video selfie age verification in collaboration with Yoti. This initiative comes amid growing scrutiny from regulators regarding age verification on social media, as Instagram seeks to provide a safer online environment for teens.
"To develop our adult classifier, we first train an AI model on signals such as profile information, like when a person's account was created and interactions with other profiles and content."
"Instagram's also experimenting with age-checking via video selfies, in collaboration with Yoti, which is now available in some regions."
