To mute Meta AI on Facebook, Instagram, and other Meta platforms, you can follow these steps:
On Facebook:
- Tap the search icon or Meta AI icon at the top of the app.
- In the search window, tap the Meta AI icon on the left side of the search bar.
- In the chat window, tap the "i" icon in the top right corner.
- Select the "Mute" option.
- Choose "Until I change it" and tap "OK" to confirm.
On Instagram:
- Swipe right from the home page to access the chat section.
- Tap the Meta AI icon in the right corner of the search bar at the top.
- In the AI chat window, tap the "i" icon and select the "Mute" option.
- Turn on the toggle for "Mute messages".
- Choose "Until I change it" from the list of options.
On Messenger:
- Tap on the Meta AI tab in the bottom toolbar.
- Tap the "i" icon on the right side of the chat window.
- On the profile page, tap the "Mute" option.
- Select "Until I change it" and tap "OK".
On WhatsApp:
- Open the Meta AI chat.
- Tap on its name at the top of the chat page.
- Tap on the "Notifications" option.
- Turn on the toggle for "Mute notifications" and select "Always".
- Tap "OK" to confirm.
It's important to note that while these steps will mute notifications from Meta AI, they won't completely remove its presence from the apps. The AI may still appear in search results and other areas of the platforms. Currently, there is no official way to completely turn off or disable Meta AI on these platforms.
Some users have suggested additional workarounds, such as blocking the Meta AI profile or using older versions of the apps, but these methods may have limitations or potential security risks. If you continue to find the AI presence intrusive, you can try to ignore the prompts and use the traditional search functions as much as possible.
