The American multinational technology conglomerate, Meta, has concluded plans to train its Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems with Facebook and Instagram postings from its user base in the United Kingdom.
The company which announced this on Friday said it had incorporated regulatory feedback to make the amended “opt-out” strategy even more transparent.
Additionally, it aims to depict the change to allow its generative AI models to “reflect British culture, history, and idiom.”

The move comes after Meta decided in mid-June to postpone the rollout of its AI models in Europe in response to a directive from the Irish privacy regulator to postpone the company’s intention to collect data from social media posts.
Subsequently, the corporation declared that the postponement would enable it to attend to inquiries from the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) in Britain.
“Since we paused training our generative AI models in the UK to address regulatory feedback, we’ve engaged positively with the ICO … this clarity and certainty will help us bring AI at Meta products to the UK much sooner,” Meta said in a statement.
