After a viral video showed Meta AI suggesting invasive prompts like "Who is the child passenger?" under a user's video with her young daughter, Meta spokesperson Dina El-Kassaby told The Verge the feature "missed the mark" and "never should have prompted" such questions. The company says it has since changed the suggested prompts in its AI chatbot.
