  • Meta AI users are accidentally sharing personal chats to a public Discover feed.
  • Some users seem to think that the Share button saves chats privately.
  • The publicly shared chats include confessions, medical info, and legal dilemmas.

If you’ve ever shared something personal with Meta’s AI assistant, you might want to double-check who saw it. A serious misunderstanding with the functionality of the Meta AI app is causing people to publish deeply private conversations inadvertently on a public feed.

A thread from X user Justine Moore highlighted the issue and shared some examples. The user had seen confessions of affairs, medical questions, legal dilemmas, and tax records — all visible to anyone browsing the app’s Discover tab. Within a few minutes of signing up and logging on, I saw the same sort of thing.
