In a major move to strengthen platform security and user privacy, Meta-owned WhatsApp has banned the use of AI chatbots, including popular tools such as ChatGPT and Perplexity.
According to Meta, the decision aims to protect user data and ensure the integrity of the messaging platform. The company cited potential risks such as misinformation, privacy breaches, and other security threats that could arise from third-party AI chatbot integrations.
With this restriction in place, users will no longer be able to send messages, ask questions, or access AI-powered features through chatbots on WhatsApp. The company emphasized that it is committed to maintaining a safe and trustworthy user experience.
A Meta spokesperson stated that the company is continuously working to enhance safety measures and may introduce new guidelines and regulations for the use of AI tools in the future.
Industry experts believe that this decision could have a significant impact on the future of AI integration within communication platforms, potentially reshaping how users interact with artificial intelligence across social apps.
