Creators were paid by Manus, an AI company integrated into Meta, to discourage taking part-time jobs. The initiative involved content creators promoting Manus’ AI product across Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok, presenting it as an easy moneymaking opportunity. The promotion involved creating websites for local businesses using AI and selling them. Despite claims of potential high earnings, the campaign faced criticism for lack of disclosure about paid promotions. Legal experts highlighted potential violations of advertising laws due to undisclosed relationships between creators and Manus. Meta did not comment on the campaign’s compliance with advertising policies. Some content was removed, and accounts were banned after inquiries.
