There seems to be more and more generated content showing up in my feed, and honestly, I’m not happy about it. I have seen many users expressing frustration about AI-generated pins cluttering their carefully curated feeds. The good news is that Pinterest is finally listening to what we users want. They have just rolled out new controls that let you reduce the amount of AI content you see. This is a big deal for people who prefer authentic, human-created pins over machine-generated ones.
What Prompted This Change?
Pinterest users have been vocal about their concerns. The platform saw an explosion of AI-generated content, and while some people find it useful, many others felt it was taking over their feeds. Users complained that AI-generated pins were pushing out real content from creators and brands they actually follow. These complaints were heard loud and clear, and Pinterest decided to take action. The platform recognized that giving users control over their own feed experience was essential to keeping them happy and engaged.
Understanding the New Controls
Pinterest has introduced new settings that put the power back in your hands. You can now adjust your feed preferences to see less AI-generated content. The controls are designed to be simple and straightforward. Instead of just accepting whatever Pinterest shows you, you now have options. You can customize your feed to show more original content and fewer machine-generated pins.
How to Use the New Feature
Using Pinterest’s AI content controls is easy. Go to your feed settings and look for the new preference options. You will find a section where you can indicate your preference for AI-generated content. You can choose to reduce it significantly or adjust the amount to your liking. The settings are flexible, so you control exactly what your feed looks like. Some users might want to see very little AI content, while others might be fine with some. Either way, you get to decide.
