Meta launched Meta AI for Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp, and Instagram, but I don’t want generative AI in chat apps.

You know, when you’re one of those foreigners whose peers all exclusively use WhatsApp, be it child or grandparent, that’s a pretty big appeal. To me, you’re the weird foreigner who doesn’t use WhatsApp ;)

Fair enough, I’m just saying locally no one uses it except really sketchy people who get weird looks when they ask if anyone has it. It’s pretty much either Facebook Messenger or Snapchat around these parts.

Facebook Messenger or Snapchat

…that’s somehow worse than WhatsApp.

I never said that? I don’t even know what it looks like because it’s so uncommon here, lol.

Apologies if I was unclear: I was making a statement that by using FB Messenger and Snapchat, the people there have, imho, somehow found worse chat apps to be using for privacy and security than even WhatsApp.

I don’t think the gen pop thinks about privacy and security with their messaging apps here.

You’re american, right? And you use an iPhone, right?

Yes and no. I hate Apple, but it’s definitely the dominate force around here, everyone has one.

You won my trust, partly.
