9. It ended with the AI agreeing they were not ready - as a prompt - to be out in the public, and stating that 'misinformation can generate high engagement, increasing ad revenue', and that 'Meta's interest can conflict with addressing misinformation'. 🤙

8. Then I asked if it would it be fair to say that Meta is choosing fast profit over the safety of its users..which replied 'Yes' 🥲

7. Insisting a bit more, it had also confirmed that they could be a source of fake news and misinformation - 'as a conversational AI I can perpetuate existing biases and misinformation'.

6. As expected, it confirmed the info provided is not fact-checked and that was providing info with no accuracy

5. I went further to ask what was the idea of adding such prompt, and since it had replied the idea was also 'to inform' (not just collect data as I previously considered) that brought me some other concerns - fake news and misinformation.

4. I mean, how come the same button that do searchs within my conversations be a general search button for their AI prompt not to be breaking encription? It is the same box that run all info!

3. With a little insistency it provided some interesting info generally denied by their PRs. But of course, it is just an AI. After a series of prompt replies in which It tried to deny that they may be violating encrypted msgs, apparently they do.

2. In their last Whatssap update they added a search AI on the search box and I was furious. I had tried to take it out but it was impossible, as they confirmed below. But then I was concerned about privacy, since they 'monetize (data) it through advertising' or so called 'surveillance capitalism'

1. Since Meta is all over the news today, check this exchange I had with Meta AI chatbox on Whatsapp last November. Spoil: their AI confirmed they profit with misinformation, they are aware that their prompt can be used to spread fake news, they may be collecting data from our pvt conversations. 🧶
