Meta Will Use Public Data From Adults In The Uk For Artificial Intelligence Training
Meta will start using publicly shared content from adult users in the UK on Facebook and Instagram to train its artificial intelligence models. The company will assess publicly available information, such as posts, comments, photos, and descriptions, from users on both platforms.
Meta emphasized that its AI is designed to reflect diverse global communities and plans to expand its AI initiatives to more countries and languages later this year. The company clarified that it does not use data from accounts of individuals under 18 in the UK.
In July, Meta halted AI assistant deployments in the EU following an order from the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) due to data privacy concerns. Meta claims it uses Facebook and Instagram user data with their consent and offers an option to opt out.
UK-based adults on Facebook and Instagram will receive in-app notifications detailing Meta's data usage practices and offering an option to object to the use of their data for AI training. Meta stated that it will accept all existing and new objection forms.
The DPC, responsible for enforcing the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), is intensifying its oversight. On September 12, it launched a cross-border investigation into Google Ireland Limited to determine if it complies with EU data protection laws in developing its AI models.
The investigation will focus on the use of EU citizens' personal data in training Googleโs advanced language model, Pathways Language Model 2 (PaLM2), introduced on May 10, 2023.
The DPC also investigated the social media platform X and concluded the investigation after X agreed to meet the necessary compliance standards. On September 4, X agreed to stop using personal data of EU and European Economic Area (EEA) users to train its AI chatbot, Grok.
Russia Will Establish Cross-Border Cryptocurrency Payment Regulations By November
Anatoly Aksakov, Chairman of the State Duma's Financial Markets Committee, announced that the Russian Central Bank and Ministry of Finance are working on regulations for cross-border cryptocurrency payments. The government aims to finalize these regulations by the end of November.
Initially, the Russian government will test the cryptocurrency payment mechanism under an experimental legal regime (ELR). This means only selected participants, such as credit institutions and banks, will be involved in the process. The goal is to minimize risks and develop regulations to protect the market from fraud. Aksakov noted that companies are already using cryptocurrencies for import and export payments, with transaction volumes expected to reach billions of dollars. He emphasized the need to limit the number of financial institutions participating in the initial phase to better understand the market and develop effective regulatory measures.
Vitalik praised Danny Ryan for his contributions to the Ethereum ecosystem and highlighted his work during the transition from Proof of Work to Proof of Stake.
