Texas Ag to investigate Meta and Fashy.ai on “misleading” mental health claims

The Public Prosecutor of Texas Kane Pakston Declared plans to investigate Both Meta Ai Studio and Farks.AI to provide chat keys from artificial intelligence that can claim to be healthy tools, and perhaps misuse of data collected from users below legal age.

This behavior that can leave younger users is vulnerable to misleading and inaccurate information. Since artificial intelligence platforms often depend on user claims as another source of training data, either company can also violate the privacy of the young user and misuse of their data. This is of particular importance in Texas, where Domain It sets specific limits on what companies can do with the data that is harvested from minors, and requires the platform display tools so that parents can manage privacy settings for their children’s accounts.

Mita shared similar feelings in her comment. The company said: “It is clear that we call AIS, and to help people better understand their restrictions, we include the evacuation of responsibility that the responses that are created by artificial intelligence – not people.” It is also assumed that “Meta AIS” directs users to search for medical professionals or qualified safety when necessary. “Sending people to real resources is good, but it is easy to ignore the evacuation of responsibility themselves, and they do not act as much as Aqaba.
