Mother Says Meta AI Surfaced Deleted Photos and Details About Her Kids

An American mother claims Meta AI surfaced years-old information, including photos and details about her children, from across social media posts. Her experience has sparked concerns online over children’s privacy and how AI tools can connect seemingly unrelated personal information. Digital creator Kalie Robbins said the AI pulled together her children’s names, birth details, photographs and videos after she clicked a suggested prompt on a Facebook video. She alleged the tool showed a newborn photo posted by her mother and an image she had deleted from her own account years ago. Robbins said she plans to remove identifiable photos of her children from her accounts and urged relatives to do the same. The incident has prompted wider online debate about AI regulations and how publicly available data can be assembled into detailed profiles of minors.
