US EditionMeta AI App Exposes Users' Private Chats in Discover Feed
- Meta launched its AI app on April 29, 2025, which has been downloaded 6.5 million times and posts user queries publicly in a Discover feed.
- The public posting occurs because Meta does not clearly inform users where their prompts and answers are shared, causing many to unknowingly expose sensitive information.
- Reports from multiple media outlets uncovered instances where users shared sensitive medical inquiries, exam answers, and personal information publicly, often linked to their social media profiles.
- The leader of Social Proof Security emphasized that this issue represents a significant concern for both user experience and security, as individuals typically do not anticipate their AI interactions being accessible to the public.
- The privacy issues have raised alarms about user security and could undermine public trust, possibly limiting adoption of Meta's AI tools without clearer protections.
