July 10 (Reuters) - ⁠Meta said on ⁠Friday it is ‌discontinuing an AI feature that allowed users to ​generate images using ⁠public Instagram ⁠accounts, days after rolling out ⁠the ‌feature.

"Our intent was to ⁠provide a useful creative ​tool ‌and to give people ⁠control ​over whether their public content could ⁠be referenced in this ​way," Meta said in a statement.

"We've heard ⁠the feedback that this feature missed the mark, so it's ​no longer ⁠available," it said.
