Meta AI App Exposes Users' Private Chats in Discover Feed
- The artificial intelligence tool introduced by Facebook’s parent company in early 2025 publicly displays some users’ prompts and corresponding outputs on a ‘Discover’ feed as of June 13, 2025.
- This practice arises from Meta's intent to encourage user interaction, but many users unknowingly share private and sensitive information linked to their social media identities.
- Investigations by BBC and TechCrunch show that queries, including intimate medical questions, test answers, and personal details, appear on a public feed with usernames and profile pictures displayed.
- Security expert Rachel Tobac highlighted that this issue represents a significant problem for both user privacy and overall experience, noting that most people are unaware their AI chatbot conversations could be publicly linked to their social media identities.
- The situation highlights serious privacy concerns that could erode trust and limit adoption of Meta's AI tools unless privacy protections and clearer user communication improve.
