Meta admits Meta AI suggestion feature 'went too far'
Meta AI's proactive suggestion feature caused controversy after it started proposing personal questions without being asked. In one case, a user received a suggestion to ask about their child's sports activities, and the chatbot then answered using information from past posts and family members' accounts. Meta acknowledged the feature had overstepped and said it had fixed the root cause of such overly personal suggestions.
