Meta has suspended the use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) in Brazil after the country’s data protection authority issued a preliminary ban objecting to its new privacy policy.
The development was first reported by news agency Reuters.
The company said it has decided to suspend the tools while it is in talks with Brazil’s National Data Protection Authority (ANPD) to address the agency’s concerns over its use of GenAI technology.
Earlier this month, ANPD halted with immediate effect the social media giant’s new privacy policy that granted the company access to users’ personal data to train its GenAI systems.
