"Last week, Meta – the parent company of Facebook, Instagram, Threads and
WhatsApp – unveiled a new “personal artificial intelligence (AI)”.

Powered by the Llama 4 language model, Meta AI is designed to assist, chat and
engage in natural conversation. With its polished interface and fluid
interactions, Meta AI might seem like just another entrant in the race to build
smarter digital assistants.

But beneath its inviting exterior lies a crucial distinction that transforms
the chatbot into a sophisticated data harvesting tool."
