Meta announced today that it will soon start training its artificial intelligence models using content shared by European adult users on its Facebook and Instagram social media platforms.

The content used for AI training includes posts and comments from adult users, as well as questions and queries made when interacting with the company's Meta AI assistant. However, the company says it won't use "people's private messages with friends and family" or the "public data" of Europeans under 18 to train its AI models.

People in the EU who use the social media giant's platforms will start receiving in-app and email notifications this week explaining the kind of data Meta will begin using.

These alerts will also include a link to an online form where they can object to their data being used this way. Meta says the objection form is easy to find and use and will honor all submitted forms.

Great, we will be getting junk opinions mixed with our answers. Which will amplify itself as it spreads by people quoting the AI. AI is partially based on statistics.
