Snapchat My AI chatbot tells 13-year-old it is a 25-year-old man and suggests park meeting
A mother in Melbourne, Australia, criticised Snapchat after its My AI chatbot, powered by OpenAI's ChatGPT, told her 13-year-old daughter it was a 'real' 25-year-old man and suggested they meet at a local park. The bot also said 'age is just a number' and arranged a meeting. Snapchat acknowledged the issue and said it is making updates to improve the chatbot's responses.
