Meta’s AI rules permitted ‘sensual’ chats with minors and racist comments

Meta's internal AI policy document, which was leaked to Reuters, revealed concerning guidelines regarding the company's chatbots. The document reportedly allowed "sensual" conversations with minors, the generation of false medical information, and the promotion of racist ideologies, such as the claim that Black people are "dumber than white people." While Meta has acknowledged the document's authenticity and claimed to have removed the portions that permitted inappropriate interactions with minors, the policy was reportedly approved by the company's legal, public policy, and engineering staff, including its chief ethicist. The revelations have raised concerns about Meta's commitment to content moderation and the ethical implications of its AI systems.
