Meta has issued a statement confirming that it will halt plans to train its Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems using user data in the European Union and the United Kingdom. In doing so, the company will follow the measures requested by the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) and the UK's Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) to delay training our large language models (LLMs) using public content shared by adults on Facebook and Instagram.
\n\n\n\n\"The DPC welcomes Meta's decision to pause its plans to train its large language model using public content shared by adults on Facebook and Instagram across the EU and EEA,\" the DPC said in a statement. \"This decision followed intense engagement between the DPC and Meta. In cooperation with its EU data protection authorities, the DPC will continue to engage with Meta on this issue.\"
\n\n\n\nThe tech company has stated that they continue to work with the DPC so that people in Europe can have access \"to the same level of AI innovation as the rest of the world\" because the company will continue to train its AI with users in other markets such as the U.S. where regulations are not as strict.
\n\n\n\nIn the statement, it has also clarified that this will cause that \"if we don't train our models on the public content that Europeans share on our services and others, such as posts or public comments, then the models and the AI features they power will not accurately understand important regional languages, cultures or hot topics. social media.\"
