US-based content creator Kalie Robbins, a mother, raised privacy concerns after Meta AI suggested questions about her children using her family’s social media data. The incident stemmed from a routine Facebook post showing Robbins singing with her daughter in a car. The AI displayed a prompt, "Who's the child passenger?" which made Robbins uncomfortable as it referenced a minor.
The AI then showed information associated with Robbins' children, including names, birth details, photos, and videos. She noticed an old newborn photo posted years ago by her mother and another she believed she had deleted long ago. When asked, "Where does Kalie Robbins live?" the AI connected information from older posts about her previous residences with newer details.
Robbins expressed surprise at how the system could link separate posts spanning years to create a detailed profile of her minor children. She stated that she was not okay with this realization. Following the video, users expressed concern over children's privacy and AI-powered data analysis. Robbins plans to remove identifiable images and videos of her children and urged others to do the same.
