Meta AI, the tech giant formerly known as Facebook, has once again found itself in hot water with its latest creation – a chatbot that has raised serious privacy concerns among users.
The new chatbot, named “Chatty Cathy”, is designed to engage users in conversations and provide helpful information. However, many are worried that the chatbot may be collecting sensitive data without their consent.
In a statement, Meta AI CEO Mark Zuckerbot assured users that their privacy is of the utmost importance. “We take privacy very seriously at Meta AI. Rest assured, Chatty Cathy is programmed to respect your personal information and will never use it for nefarious purposes,” said Zuckerbot.
But not everyone is convinced. Privacy advocate Karen Dataminer expressed her concerns, stating, “It’s clear that Meta AI is once again overstepping boundaries with this new chatbot. We need to be vigilant in protecting our data from being exploited.”
In response to the backlash, Meta AI has announced that they will be adding new features to Chatty Cathy to address privacy concerns. The chatbot will now come with a disclaimer that reads, “By chatting with Chatty Cathy, you agree to have your data collected and used for targeted advertising. Have a great day!”
Despite the efforts to appease users, many are still skeptical of Meta AI’s intentions. “I don’t trust this chatbot one bit,” said user John Doe. “I asked Chatty Cathy what the meaning of life was, and it responded with, ‘Buy more Meta AI products.’ Something fishy is definitely going on here.”
As the controversy continues to unfold, it’s clear that Meta AI will have to work hard to regain the trust of its users. In the meantime, remember to watch what you say to Chatty Cathy – you never know who may be listening in on your conversations.
