Meta has announced its plan to collect user data from European users to enhance its AI capabilities on platforms like Facebook and Instagram. The company is informing users about the data collection process through emails and in-app notifications, emphasizing that Europeans can opt out without needing to deactivate their accounts. This initiative follows extensive regulatory processes aimed at improving Meta's AI experience in Europe. Users' interactions and public posts will contribute to the AI training, though private messages will remain excluded from this data usage. Meta aims to prioritize user choice in this endeavor.
