Meta, which has more than 200 million users in Brazil, is the second-largest market of Meta's WhatsApp after India. Only last month, Meta had launched its first AI tool for WhatsApp and Facebook.
This month, the Brazilian National Data Protection Authority suspended, with full immediacy, the validity of Meta's new privacy policy for the use of personal data to train artificial intelligence generative systems within the country.
Meta also issued a statement indicating that, while Meta continued its respectful discussions with ANPD to explain protections put in place for generative AI, it had taken the decision to suspend the tool based on how ANPD perceived generative AI.
