Meta, the owner of Facebook and Instagram, has so far trained its artificial ielligence with billions of public images released by users. But now there is news that the company may go further and seek to use photos that have not even been released yet.
According to Verj, some Facebook users have encouered a message that they wa to allow “cloud processing” to be able to “cloud processing” when loading coe to the story. If agreed, Facebook will regularly access the user’s phone gallery and transfer images to its cloud. The objective is to produce coe such as collage, reconciliation, artificial ielligence redesign, or themes such as birth and graduation.
But the worrying poi is in the “conditions” of this service; By enabling this feature, users allow meta to analyze personal information including faces, image records, and the presence of other objects or people in photos, and even stored and used in meta servers.
Meta recely confirmed that it has used all data published on Facebook and Instagram to teach its language models. However, it is still unclear what meta means “public post” and what users “over the age of 5” are defined in year 2.
Meta seems to be sile and ambiguous about privacy policies, trying to make the boundary between personal and public coe less than ever. The main question for users right now is: Are the photos we haven’t released yet?
