It's meta - they've been caught doing untoward things at virtually every opportunity. Are you looking for something specific, like the creation of virtual CSAM with them or something? I'm fine with starting out by giving people/companies the benefit of the doubt I guess, but once they have shown you their true colors, you should listen.
- pj_mukh 2mo ago>>like the creation of virtual CSAM with them You think Meta is going to create CSAM with my data? Like I would dump them for using my data for analytics without my permission, but we probably should recalibrate our expectations a bit here.
- r_lee 2mo agoI feel like these people are actually doing a favor for Meta, painting those who oppose them as lunatics who are completely detached from reality

- pj_mukh 2mo agoFWIW, I hope they get sued to the high heavens for allowing these ads, but this has nothing to do with the issue laid out above.
- nmacias 2mo agoI take this story as a clear sign that they are careless & it most likely IS happening at some scale in systems that generate/personalize ad variants, chatbots, suggested interactions, etc. For another example of shipping very inappropriate things: - https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/meta-ai-chatbots-sex-a25311bf https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/meta-ai-chatbots-sex-a25311bf - https://www.404media.co/instagram-is-blocking-minors-from-accessing-chatbot-platform-ai-studio/ https://www.404media.co/instagram-is-blocking-minors-from-ac... Back to the original inference, anyway… generative ad Personalization instances DO NOT (afaik) appear in the public repository of ads. Researchers can't see it, but do we have to strain our imaginations to think that things like nudify apps aren't taking advantage of tools that do things like drop user avatars into their pitch? e.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/Fauxmoi/comments/1uhy9yn/instagram_being_called_out_for_their_creepy/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Fauxmoi/comments/1uhy9yn/instagram_... I don't have a specific citation to offer, but tbh I've seen enough.
