Unfortunately, there is no way to completely disable or turn off Meta AI on Facebook. However, there are some steps you can take to limit your interactions with it:
-
Mute Meta AI:
- Open the Facebook app and tap the Meta AI icon (blue circle) at the top of the screen.
- Tap the "i" icon in the top right corner of the Meta AI chat window.
- Select "Mute" and choose how long you want to mute it for (you can select "Until I change it" for indefinite muting).
-
Use the basic mobile site:
- Access Facebook through mbasic.facebook.com instead of the regular site or app. This basic version doesn't include Meta AI features.
-
Opt out of data usage for AI training:
- Visit the Generative AI Data Subject Rights form (https://www.facebook.com/help/contact/540338854673339)
- Fill out the form to request that your data not be used for AI training.
-
Adjust privacy settings:
- Review and update your privacy settings to limit what information is publicly available.
-
For comment summaries:
- Go to Settings & Privacy > Settings > Audience & Visibility
- Find the toggle for comment summaries and switch it off.
Keep in mind that while these steps can reduce your interactions with Meta AI, they don't completely remove it from the platform. Meta has integrated AI deeply into its services, and there's currently no official way to fully disable it.
