Facebook wants to use your posts to train AI. Here’s how to object.

Facebook is updating its privacy policy to allow the use of posts and images to train its AI. Users who do not object will automatically consent to their data being used by Meta, Facebook's parent company. The data that will be affected includes public posts, posted photos and captions, and messages to AI chatbots. Users can object to the use of their data by filling out a form on Facebook's help page. However, even if the objection is upheld, a small portion of the user's data may still be used for AI training. Users have until the end of June to submit an objection. [Extracted from the article]
