"Meta on Wednesday said it is adding the ability to start "incognito" conversations with its Meta AI chatbot within WhatsApp. These conversations, the company said, will be processed in a secure environment and can't be seen by anyone. Users can start an incognito session by tapping on a new icon in one-on-one chats with Meta AI. The company said the feature will also be available on the standalone Meta AI app as well."
"Meta said these incognito conversations are not saved, and messages will disappear by default once you close the chat. The session will also end if you close the app or lock your phone, and Meta AI will lose the context of that particular conversation, the company said."
""People are starting to use AI for everything, including some of their most private thoughts, whether that's tackling financial or health questions, or for advice on how to respond to a tricky message from a friend or a colleague. We think it's really important to give people the ability to ask these questions as privately as possible," Alice Newton-Rex, VP of Product at WhatsApp, told TechCrunch over a call."
"Newton-Rex said Meta used smaller models to power its previous features, but the new incognito chat uses its latest Muse Spark model, which was released last month. The company is already working on its next feature that taps its private processing infra. Called Side Chat, it will let users invoke Meta AI within chats to ask questions and get answers privately without notifying or showing it to other people in the chat."
Meta is adding incognito conversations with its Meta AI chatbot inside WhatsApp. Users can start an incognito session from a new icon in one-on-one chats with Meta AI, and the same capability will be available in the standalone Meta AI app. Incognito chats are processed in a secure environment and cannot be seen by others. Messages are not saved and disappear by default after the chat is closed. The session also ends when the app is closed or the phone is locked, and Meta AI loses context for that conversation. The feature will roll out over the next few months. Meta is using its private processing infrastructure to support AI features without breaking end-to-end encryption.
