๐DeFi, Web 3, Tech enthusiasts, gather 'round! Meta's AI training plans have hit a snag! ๐ They've paused their scheme to use European users' data due to pressure from the Irish DPC and other EU data protection authorities. ๐ช๐บ
๐คThe GDPR compliance challenge is real, folks! Meta's grand idea to enhance their AI with user-generated content has been met with complaints of GDPR violations. The debate rages on - should users opt-in or be forced to opt-out of data processing? ๐
๐ Meta's "subtle" approach to informing users about policy changes has been criticized. Over 2 billion notifications sent, yet easily overlooked among standard notifications. No clear indication of choice to object or opt-out. ๐ฌ
๐ญMeta's global engagement director expresses disappointment, fearing this could stifle European innovation and AI development. The company insists they're committed to transparency in AI training practices. ๐
๐ญWhat's your take? Will this set a precedent for tech giants navigating user data for AI development within GDPR framework? Comment below! ๐ฃ๏ธ #DeFi #Web3 #TechNews
