When presenting Goal AI appthe technological giant wanted to grant him that social component that characterizes his other products, but definitely this has gone from his hands. Hundreds of users and users are sharing their conversations with the chatbot at the FEED Discover of the application, and many of these cases seem accidents more than conscious actions.
A serious privacy problem
Meta launched the new version of his AI app in April in the United States and another 35 countries, although he has not yet arrived in Spain. This application is the evolution of its digital assistant goal AI and allows to interact with a conversational the conversational driven by flame 4. In addition, it stands out for its ability to remember your preferences and context, offering a personalized experience.
One of the most striking characteristics of goal AI app is the fact that it offers the option of Share your interactions with AI with other users and users of the application. This is done through a button and although Meta states that “nothing is shared in your feed unless you decide to publish it,” it is clear that Most people are not aware of the implications of this function.
This is a very serious problem and risk, since it implies a Exhibition of information and private testimonies. Social networks have plagued publications that reveal the seriousness of this situation, sharing the type of consultations that have been found in the “Discover” section of Meta AI APP and expressing their concern about it.
