Mozilla Petition> Meta: Help Users Stop Accidentally Sharing Private AI Conversations

Meta recently launched its own AI app, like ChatGPT. The Meta AI app comes with a “Discover Feed” — a public stream of real user AI conversations posted by users. Meta says that users know that they're sharing their AI conversations publicly. But a number of posts suggest otherwise. You can find posts that appear to show users' personal data, medical issues, work problems, and calendar reminders in the Discover Feed.

There is the idea of just being an npc on the surface. So what if it is your Facebook account if you never install the app, never post anything and just use it to buy lawnmowers and used cars?

Your existence isn't private by default, so make it all you give them and nothing more.
