                  This is the Meta that just escaped a full trial by buying its way out.

                  "A Futurism investigation has uncovered a huge number of Facebook accounts uploading streams of videos depicting violent child abuse — and Meta is barely pretending to care about taking them down."

                    So, after the trial was halted and a massive fine levied, Meta does this. It's incredibly important to note that an AI assistant is neither safe nor private, especially for young users, if ChatGPT is any indication. This is especially true because this bot can be fully autonomous and because Meta can't be trusted.

                    Personal assistants remember EVERYTHING. And the information will be stored on the company's servers.

                    According to Meta, the related app "runs on a dedicated, secure virtual machine that houses both the agent and the user’s data."

                                Confirmed accurate and fresh (filed this week). Here's the tweet:

                                ---

                                📸🕶️ Meta is being sued in a new nationwide class action alleging it quietly mined Facebook and Instagram photos to build NameTag, an unreleased facial recognition system meant for its smart glasses, without telling users. The lawsuit also claims those same photos were used to train Meta's generative AI, again without consent.

                                To be clear, these are allegations in a newly filed case, not proven facts yet. But it's not coming out of nowhere either, earlier reporting had already found NameTag code buried inside Meta's software months before this lawsuit existed. The complaint even points to a Meta patent describing smart glasses that scan a stranger's face and match it against your old tagged photos.

                                You uploaded vacation pics and family photos. If this holds up, they may have become the training data for a device built to identify strangers on the street.
