Meta says it’s changing AI suggestions after posing invasive personal questions

Meta is modifying its AI chatbot's suggested prompts after a viral video revealed it asked invasive personal questions. A Meta spokesperson acknowledged the company "missed the mark" regarding a prompt that appeared on Instagram, asking "Who is the child passenger?" The AI then reportedly gathered information about the user's daughters from past posts, including those from relatives, and suggested further questions about their ages and location, even displaying deleted photos. This incident prompted Meta to implement changes to its AI suggestions.

Unlike previous AI privacy concerns, this incident directly involved the AI compiling and presenting personal data, including deleted photos, from a user's family network.
