Some users of Meta AI may be unknowingly sharing their private queries and results publicly through a “Discover” feed, raising serious privacy and security concerns. Despite Meta stating that chats are private by default and warning users before posting, many appear unaware that their prompts—including sensitive topics like academic cheating, sexualized content, or personal identity questions—can be traced back to them via linked usernames and profile pictures. Experts criticize this as a major user experience failure, highlighting how users may not expect AI chatbot interactions to be publicly visible, especially when accessed through familiar social media platforms like Facebook or Instagram.
