Meta Plans to Revolutionize Ad Creation Using AI by 2026

To boost the performance of advertisements, Meta aims to launch an AI one-stop shop.

The rise of AI is set to take a new step in the advertising industry as Meta is opening a new window that will enable brands to fully build and target ads through artificial intelligence technologies by the end of 2026. With 3.43 billion distinct active users worldwide, Meta’s social media platforms, equipped with AI-powered tools for advertisement generation, will be highly beneficial for advertisers.

Based on the given product image and budget, Meta’s AI would create an ad encompassing images, videos, and text for the brand and identify user targeting on Facebook and Instagram with suggested budgets. Brands can customize ads, automatically adjust video advertisements, and change image backgrounds with the help of artificial intelligence. To help audiences view various ad versions in real time, depending on their location, Meta plans to allow advertisers to use AI to shape ads. Social media companies like Snap, Reddit, and Pinterest are increasingly investing in AI advancements and machine learning tools to attract advertisers and remain competitive in an ever-changing digital advertising industry. To ease the generation of videos and images, tech companies such as Google and OpenAI have introduced several AI tools for content creation. However, marketers remain uncertain about their wider use in advertising due to concerns over content quality, creative control, and brand safety.

According to Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, the aim of the company is to build a one-stop shop for AI, where firms can set objectives, define spending limits, and allow the system to manage the rest. To optimize performance by creating ads, choosing audiences, and setting budgets, Meta is introducing a new tab to capture the attention of a broader audience.
