Asking Meta AI a prompt doesn't make it public. But there are two problems specific to the Meta AI app that make this an issue. One is that when you create your Meta AI account, it defaults to your Instagram name, so many people have their actual names and pictures on their profiles.

At this point, we're probably all familiar with the trope of the dirty old uncle who confuses his Facebook feed for a porn site. Now, there's a new type of uncle surfing the net, and thanks to Meta, he's powered by AI.

People are unknowingly oversharing in Meta's AI app which has led to its discover feed being full of private personal conversations, audio clips and even images.

Meta AI public search issue sparks concerns as user prompts appear in public feeds, exposing sensitive queries traceable to social profiles.

Mark Zuckerberg's Meta AI app has become the saddest place on the internet with its public feed of personal overshares.

Meta's AI app is publicly broadcasting sensitive user chats via its 'Discover' feed, creating a major privacy crisis that has sparked legal challenges and widespread backlash from privacy advocates.

Meta AI is going viral for showing user chats that should not be public, so be sure to fix your privacy settings ASAP.

Despite chatbots being viewed as 'artificial' conversationalists, people have put their trust in them and are already oversharing with the AI, as chats with them are often perceived as private. However, that is not precisely the case with Meta AI.

Tap your profile icon at the top right. Tap “Data & Privacy” under “App settings.” Tap “Manage your information.” Then, tap “Make all your prompts visible to only you.” If you’ve already posted publicly and want to remove those posts, you can also tap “Delete all prompts.”
