Meta adds warning messages to stop people from sharing private details on its AI chat app. Users accidentally post personal conversations for everyone to see on the Discover feed. The company faces criticism after people shared tax problems and health questions without knowing others could read them. Business Insider called the app depressing because of all the embarrassing posts that appear publicly.
Privacy experts blame Meta for making posts public automatically. Rachel Tobac warns that people expect AI chats to stay private like other similar apps. The Mozilla Foundation wants Meta to tell users every time their messages become visible to strangers. Screenshots of weird conversations spread across social media and caught public attention.
Meta launched the AI app during April and problems started appearing right away. People shared deeply personal information thinking their chats stayed private between them and the AI system. The warning tells users that prompts become public and visible to everyone on other Meta apps. Security experts want the company to completely redesign the app to protect user privacy better.
