Facebook wants to use your posts to train Al. Here's how to object

On June 26, 2024, Facebook will change its privacy policy with regard to generative AI features such as Meta AI. From that point on, posts and photos from all users will be read by the AI to help train them and improve services such as the AI Creative Tool. Meta is currently providing information about this on Facebook. Private messages will not be affected, only public texts and images. Nevertheless, many users may be skeptical about this new regulation due to data protection concerns or for personal reasons.

Meta emphasizes that every user has the “right to object.” We explain below how you can object to the use of your data.
