Meta says that your chats with Meta AI are not private, all can be seen
Is Meta AI sharing your personal chat with everyone? While Meta says that chat is private by default, many users are inadvertently sharing their chats with the public.
Listen to the story

In short
- Meta AI app allows users to share their conversation with chatbott publicly
- But many users are accidentally sharing personal chats
- Meta says that the material is only public if users choose to share it
Meta AI app reveals your personal data? In the last few weeks, the new stand-alone AI chatboat app of the meta has been subject to criticism of how it handles the user’s interaction. Many people have shared examples of posting posts in the Discover feed that appear highly individual and even include sensitive information. While Meta has clarified that chats with AI chatbott are private by default and only become public. When users clearly share them, many users remain confused – or even unknown – that their questions for bott or even personal photos can end at the public feed.
Confusion arises from the interface of the app about sharing personal chat with the possibility of Meta AI. The chatbot includes a stock button. On clicking on the app, it opens a preview screen that asks users to confirm action for chat to appear in public discover feed. However, the sharing process clearly does not reveal the details of what is shared, where and with whom. And this process has certainly motivated some users to accidentally publish the material she assumed that she was private.
The result is that the Discover feed is now inhabited with a stream of strange, revelations, and sometimes worrying interactions, making their way into the eyes of the public. For example, when we examined the Discover feed, there were posts as asking about IRCTC guidelines for people, individual beauty governance, or even letters were included including sensitive details. A widely operated example has an audio recording of a man, asking, “Hey, meta, why do some farts smell more than other farts?” – All of which are shared directly or unknowingly.
Although Meta spokesperson Daniel Roberts responded to the controversy that the chat with Meta AI is not private until the users choose to share them, he said, “Users must actively tap the share or published button before showing on the discover feed of the app.” Even after tapping the share button, there is only a small note, stating that “the signs you have been public and appear to everyone,” who clearly does not say where the posts will appear or at what level of visibility will be for the post -post -possible misunderstanding.
We have used the app, and now it is clear that the posts are made public only when it is shared in public. But the process is not completely transparent. Although it does not automatically expose private chats, the share facility is sufficiently sufficient for some users to leave uncertain about what they are consenting – especially for those who log in through public Instagram profiles. There is an option for users to create a completely new profile.
And while many shared posts appear in the form of trolling or memes-which includes the AI-Janit image of the monkey taking selfie in the Himalayas-they are deeply individual, including pictures that are shared with users AI, such as to convert to various subjects such as comics or arts. And this is causing concern about how the app is turning into a privacy mine area.
