Meta AI - ABC News
Meta AIPM and News Online: A radio piece broadcast on the PM program 6 June, and a written piece published on ABC News online 10 June, incorrectly stated that Australian users would be subject to new privacy policies by Meta that were planned to come into effect in the EU/UK on June 26. The changes would enable Meta to use material from Facebook and Instagram users’ accounts to train AI. The story incorrectly stated that, “This will happen regardless of whether your account is public or private.” Australian users will not be affected by the planned EU changes, and public Australian data is already being used by Meta to train AI, according to its privacy policies.
