Their app sucks but their AI seems great! lol
(pretty sure they will shut that down straight away though!)
@aboutsignal I’m also quite sure #Meta #AI is now reading along with everything you type in the #WhatsApp search bar.
I’d have to build a setup to capture traffic to be sure, but maybe someone already has who can confirm or refute?
That says it all 😂 👍
@catch56 @lexipic @aboutsignal yeah, it's just going off content. At least it shows that their AI doesn't put bias toward WhatsApp in this case, but it also may speak to the commodification of AI where all of these AI basically do the same thing and have roughly the same biases.
Except for Grok lol
@aboutsignal maybe scraping the fediverse did something good
(hashtag intentionally left out)
@aboutsignal I just tried it by myself…
Ps: don’t wonder about my thumb. I had an accident at work in my garden 😭
@aboutsignal yep, Meta AI recommends Signal.

@leobard that's a long list haha! We asked it within an individual chat by tagging @ meta ai and asked for short answers, maybe that gives shorter results.
More interestingly, even with your long list WhatsApp is still not mentioned! Wow....
@mojoaxel @aboutsignal I can confirm Llama 3.2 running locally with real-time data gives:
"Signal: Signal is my go-to choice for private conversations. It's end-to-end encrypted, meaning only the sender and receiver can read the messages. It also has a clean interface and works on both iOS and Android."
But also mentions Wire and Telegram Secret Chats

au premier degré, c'est hilarant ; au deuxième degré, tout autant (même s'il s'agissait d'un faux).
@Vivaldol @becdanlo fyi it's not fake, unedited screenshot

How long until Zuck "fixes" this?
