Brazil blocks Meta from using social media posts to train AI

Hi All

 

Brazil has blocked Meta from using Brazilians' Instagram and Facebook posts to train its artificial intelligence (AI) models.

 

It comes weeks after the company abandoned similar plans to use UK and European users' posts for the same purpose.

 

On Tuesday, Brazil's national data protection agency (ANPD) said it would immediately suspend Meta's latest privacy policy, which allows it to train generative AI models such as chat-bots based on posts from its users.

A Meta spokesperson told the BBC the company was "disappointed by the decision", adding that their approach complied with local privacy laws.
