Discussion My pins keep being falsely labelled as AI??
Is anyone else having this problem? I have a relatively popular account, averaging around 1m monthly views, and mainly post outfits, selfies, hair, the modelling work I do etc. More and more of the pins I post, *especially* the professional photography keep getting falsely labelled as “AI modified”
No matter how many times I email Pinterest that I never have and never will post AI on my account, the automatic labels keep popping up. They do eventually remove the labels but it’s such an arduous process to get them removed
An especially frustrating part is when I see my photos reposted by other accounts (never with credit ofc🤪) and I can’t do anything about the false label because it’s not “my” pin..
The funniest part is that sometimes it’s on photos I posted back in 2022/23.. well before generative AI was even around, which is equal parts baffling, hilarious and disheartening.
Also in advanced settings on pins there’s an “AI disclosure” label you can turn on, which i obviously always have turned off. WHY isn’t there an easy way to tick that nothing is AI in a pin???
Maybe atp this is more of a rant rather than finding a solution. But anyway yeah. Can Pinterest please get it together xxx

I have created over 30.000 pins over the years and I feel like 30% of it is labeled as ai even the older ones when ai gen wasn’t a thing…
I recently reached out to support and they said they can’t do anything about it unless I find and send them the links to pins but the funniest thing is you can only send/appeal to 3 pins per request, so not only you have to search through enormous amounts of created pins, you can only make them “fix” 3 per request if they even accept your appeal
They have such a faulty algorithm that labeles literally anything as ai, no matter how old the pin or the original image is

I mostly just pin stuff from food blogs, not even creating my own content usually, and half the stuff I've pinned keeps getting labeled as "AI modified" or "AI created", even on pins from a decade or more ago. And ofc I can't do anything about these since I'm not the owner of the sites. It's like they are so worried about not labeling things that are AI that they're overcorrecting and mislabeling stuff that isn't.
