Summary
Google is adding a label to show users whether ads on its platforms were created or edited using AI (artificial intelligence). The label appears in Google's 'My Ad Center' under a 'how this ad was made' tab, and users can access it by clicking the info button on any ad. Google will automatically label ads made with its own generative AI tools (AI systems that create new content), but ads made with other AI tools must be labeled manually.
