More and more Shopping data is created using generative AI tools, and we now require some types of product data to be identified as being AI-generated. This article defines the product data that must be identified as being created using Generative AI.
In this article
AI-generated images
All images created using generative AI must contain meta data indicating that the image was AI-generated by using the IPTC DigitalSourceType
TrainedAlgorithmicMedia
metadata tag.
Important: Don't remove embedded metadata tags such as the IPTC DigitalSourceType
property from images created using generative AI tools, for example Product Studio
. The following IPTC NewsCodes specify the type of digital source that was used to create the image, and should be preserved:
-
TrainedAlgorithmicMedia
: The image was created using a model derived from sampled content. -
CompositeSynthetic
: The image is a composite that includes synthetic elements. -
AlgorithmicMedia
: The image was created purely by an algorithm not based on any sampled training data (for example, an image created by software using a mathematical formula).
AI-generated images can be used in the following attributes:
- Image link
[image_link]
- Additional image link
[additional_image_link]
- Lifestyle image link
[lifestyle_image_link]
AI-generated product data
When using AI-generated content for the title and description text attributes, an alternative attribute must be used instead of, or in addition to, the existing title [title]
or description [description]
attribute.
Title
For titles created using generative AI, use the structured title [structured_title]
attribute. The structured title [structured_title]
attribute uses 2 sub-attributes:
- Digital source type
[digital_source_type]
( Required for content created using Generative AI): Provide the value “trained_algorithmic_media”
, indicating that the title was created using Generative AI. - Content
[content]
( Required , plain Text): The AI-generated title.

and structured title [structured_title]

Description
All descriptions created using generative AI must be provided using the structured description [structured_description]
attribute. The structured description [structured_description]
attribute uses 2 sub-attributes:
- Digital source type
[digital_source_type]
( Required for content created using Generative AI): Provide the value “trained_algorithmic_media
”, indicating that the description was created using Generative AI. - Content
[content]
( Required , plain Text): The AI-generated description.
