Instagram Boss Confirms Your Photos Are about as Real as Bigfoot Sightings
KEY POINTS
- ā¢Adam Mosseri shared a 20-image explainer on Instagramās shift to 'infinite synthetic content' by end of 2025.
- ā¢He confirmed that traditional personal Instagram feeds have been 'dead' for several years, signaling a shift.
- ā¢Sarah Jeong previously warned in 2024 that creating believable fake photos has become trivial and common.
In a 20-image saga that sounds more like a tech horror story than a social media update, Instagram bigwig Adam Mosseri closed 2025 telling us to surrender to 'infinite synthetic content.' Thatās right: the era when your #nofilter beach selfie is as likely to be real as a politician's promise. Mosseri, who apparently has Instagramās pulse but zero nostalgia for the 'dead' personal feed, concurs with The Vergeās Sarah Jeongāwho in 2024 preemptively warned us that any photo nowadays might be 'faked because creating believable fakes is trivial now.' Basically, your entire feed is a digital funhouse mirror, and Mosseri signed the death certificate for authenticity, dated sometime before 2025.

Instagramās new motto: Canāt tell real from AI? Good. Thatās the point. Keep scrolling and questioning your sanity.
Congrats Instagram, turning your feed from 'just a little fake' to 'full-on Stranger Things upside down' realness.
Remember when photos captured memories? Now they capture Mosseriās dystopian AI takeover, one pixel at a time.
