Meta use AI to detect the age of the user

Cupertino – Meta An attempt to deal with the problems of minor users who lie about age, actually use artificial intelligence (AI).

This function based on AI was previously tested in small quantities, but now, finally, activated to ensure the safety of teenage users.

Based on the habits of use and loaded content, Meta may guess whether the user is a teenager or adults.

If age fraud is detected, the account will be automatically changed to META Teen account, which limits interaction with foreigners, contact with adults and is not allowed to broadcast directly.

Meta said that this feature was activated because she admitted that not all parents and guardians monitored activities on the social networks of the children they contributed. Since AI is used, errors may occur.

If the account for adults is marked with minors, the user may apply for its change.
