Meta says it has fixed a Meta AI feature that generated invasive automatic prompts on Instagram posts, such as questions identifying a poster's child or home location, after parenting blogger Kalie Robins showed the tool piecing together private details from years of old photos and family accounts. Meta confirmed the feature missed its intended purpose and will no longer surface such personal suggestions, though it gave few specifics on what exactly was changed.

Meta says it has corrected an issue in its AI assistant after a viral video showed the tool generating an invasive suggested question, 'Who is the child passenger?', beneath a Facebook video of Instagram user Kalie Robins and her daughter. Robins says the chatbot then pulled together details about her children's ages, location, and even old deleted photos from posts made by her and her relatives.

Utah mother Kalie Robins posted a video of herself and her daughter singing in a car without naming the child.
