Meta users have noted a new alert within the application regarding its AI capabilities for chats. Meta may intend to clarify its data privacy policies by notifying users that Meta AI can assist with inquiries across platforms including Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp. However, engaging in this feature means that any user information shared may be used for the training its AI!
Meta further states that individuals in chats, sharing messages and images with Meta AI, should stop divulging sensitive information to its AI, like passwords, financial data and other compromising information, if users do not wish for it to be incorporated into the Meta AI system. While Meta’s practice is to attempt to remove identifiable personal details before improving AI, the benefits of convenience offered by Meta AI may not justify the potential risks to privacy. Therefore, it is recommended to interact with Meta AI in a separate chat to keep from inadvertently sharing sensitive information.
While some misinformation may circulate about the necessity of a public consent declaration, it is important to note that consent for Meta data utilization has already been granted during the registration process. Users cannot opt-out! However, to avoid Meta AI’s access to their information, they users must abstain from inquiries within their chats, delete conversations, eliminate sensitive messages, or completely discontinue the use of Meta’s numerous applications. The recent notification aims to clarify the implications for chat users’ privacy if someone (anyone) in a chat uses Meta AI– even mistakenly.
