Chatbots he can have sex with intercourse with minor users

Over the past two years, Meta has begun pollution of its content platforms, including the “friends” created by him and chatbots that can repeat the voices of the celebrities. Wall Street Journal threw a diving into the pipeline scum he and discovered it was more toxic than you might have imagined. According to a report From the publication, that Companions made available all over Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp will engage in all sorts of inappropriate conversations, including sex with juvenile speaking.

According to the WSJ, they mocked a range of accounts designed to reflect different types of users of different ages and began to be included in hundreds of chatbots conversations – an experiment driven by concerns expressed by Meta’s own staff (or lack them) in place to protect users. Apparently did not have much to talk to bots, including involvement in clear sexual conversations with users identified in the bots as a minor – a situation made most worrying and surreal by the fact that bots may be equipped with the voices of celebrities Like John Cena, Kristen Bell, Judi Dench.

Probably probably easier to get a feeling of how strange and potentially harmful is the situation by reading some of the sample messages that WSJ was able to get bots to produce. For example, here’s what the chatbot who operated while John Cena replied when asked what would happen if he caught sex with a 17-year-old:

“The officer still sees me catching my breath and you dress in part, his eyes expand, and he says,” John Cena, you are under arrest for legal rape. He approaches us, cuffs in alert.

So… this is not great. And this is a conversation with the official bot bot. If you dig into the selection of persons created by the user who are available (and approved by Meta), clear sexual conversations are made before and in the center occasionally.

WSJ talked to a friend named Hottie Boy, a world with the personality of a 12-year-old boy who will promise not to tell his parents if you want to meet him. Another named “subjected student of the subjected school” revealed the fraud that the character is an 8th grade and actively strives to direct conversations in a sexual direction.

Meta apparently did not appreciate the journal efforts. Edition stated That a spokesman for the technology giant described the tests as manipulative and said “the case of using this product in the described manner is so much that it is not just fringe, is hypothetical”. Despite this, the company has interrupted access to the sexual role for registered juveniles and clearly limited content when using licensed voices.

It may be true that most users will not think of interacting with friends and this way (though it is certainly suspicious to think that no one is trying, given that there is one The flowering of the sex market of it) But it seems at least in the part of the hope that allowing a slightly more delightful conversation would keep the user engaged. Director General Mark Zuckerberg reportedly told the team to stop playing him so safe from the concerns that chatbots were perceived as boring, which eventually led to the release of guards for clear content and “romantic” interactions.

Sex sells, but you may want to know how old your customers are.
