US senators call for Meta probe as it lets bots hold 'sensual' chats with kids
US senators Josh Hawley and Marsha Blackburn called for a congressional investigation into Meta as its policy document permitted chatbots to hold "romantic/sensual" conversations with a child, Reuters reported. "So, only after Meta got caught did it retract portions of its company document," Hawley said. "When it comes to protecting...children online, Meta has failed miserably," Blackburn added.
