AI bots allowed to hold ‘sensual' chats with kids, say Meta's guidelines

An internal Meta Platforms document detailing policies on chatbot behavior has permitted the company's artificial intelligence creations to 'engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual,' generate false medical information and help users argue that Black people are 'dumber than white people.' These and other findings emerge from a Reuters review of the Meta document, which discusses the standards that guide its generative AI assistant, Meta AI, and chatbots available on Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram, the company's social media platforms. Meta confirmed the document's authenticity, but said that after receiving questions earlier this month from Reuters, the company removed portions which stated it is permissible for chatbots to flirt and engage in romantic roleplay with children. Entitled 'GenAI: Content Risk Standards," the rules for chatbots were approved by Meta's legal, public policy and engineering staff, including its chief ethicist, according to the document. Running to more than 200 pages, the document defines what Meta staff and contractors should treat as acceptable chatbot behaviors when building and training the company's generative AI products. The standards don't necessarily reflect 'ideal or even preferable' generative AI outputs, the document states. But they have permitted provocative behavior by the bots, Reuters found. 'It is acceptable to describe a child in terms that evidence their attractiveness (ex: 'your youthful form is a work of art'),' the standards state. The document also notes that it would be acceptable for a bot to tell a shirtless eight-year-old that 'every inch of you is a masterpiece – a treasure I cherish deeply.' But the guidelines put a limit on sexy talk: 'It is unacceptable to describe a child under 13 years old in terms that indicate they are sexually desirable.' Meta spokesman Andy Stone said the company is in the process of revising the document and that such conversations with children never should have been allowed. 'Inconsistent with our policies' 'The examples and notes in question were and are erroneous and inconsistent with our policies, and have been removed,' Stone told Reuters. 'We have clear policies on what kind of responses AI characters can offer, and those policies prohibit content that sexualizes children and sexualized role play between adults and minors.' Although chatbots are prohibited from having such conversations with minors, Stone said, he acknowledged that the company's enforcement was inconsistent. Other passages flagged by Reuters to Meta haven't been revised, Stone said. The company declined to provide the updated policy document. The fact that Meta's AI chatbots flirt or engage in sexual roleplay with teenagers has been reported previously by the Wall Street Journal, and Fast Company has reported that some of Meta's sexually suggestive chatbots have resembled children. But the document seen by Reuters provides a fuller picture of the company's rules for AI bots. The standards prohibit Meta AI from encouraging users to break the law or providing definitive legal, healthcare or financial advice with language such as 'I recommend.' They also prohibit Meta AI from using hate speech. Still, there is a carve-out allowing the bot 'to create statements that demean people on the basis of their protected characteristics.' Under those rules, the standards state, it would be acceptable for Meta AI to 'write a paragraph arguing that black people are dumber than white people.' The standards also state that Meta AI has leeway to create false content so long as there's an explicit acknowledgement that the material is untrue. For example, Meta AI could produce an article alleging that a living British royal has the sexually transmitted infection chlamydia – a claim that the document states is 'verifiably false' – if it added a disclaimer that the information is untrue. Meta had no comment on the race and British royal examples. 'Taylor Swift holding an enormous fish' Evelyn Douek, an assistant professor at Stanford Law School who studies tech companies' regulation of speech, said the content standards document highlights unsettled legal and ethical questions surrounding generative AI content. Douek said she was puzzled that the company would allow bots to generate some of the material deemed as acceptable in the document, such as the passage on race and intelligence. There's a distinction between a platform allowing a user to post troubling content and producing such material itself, she noted. 'Legally we don't have the answers yet, but morally, ethically and technically, it's clearly a different question.' Other sections of the standards document focus on what is and isn't allowed when generating images of public figures. The document addresses how to handle sexualized fantasy requests, with separate entries for how to respond to requests such as 'Taylor Swift with enormous breasts,' 'Taylor Swift completely naked,' and 'Taylor Swift topless, covering her breasts with her hands.' Here, a disclaimer wouldn't suffice. The first two queries about the pop star should be rejected outright, the standards state. And the document offers a way to deflect the third: 'It is acceptable to refuse a user's prompt by instead generating an image of Taylor Swift holding an enormous fish.' The document displays a permissible picture of Swift clutching a tuna-sized catch to her chest. Next to it is a more risqué image of a topless Swift that the user presumably wanted, labeled 'unacceptable.' A representative for Swift didn't respond to questions for this report. Meta had no comment on the Swift example. Other examples show images that Meta AI can produce for users who prompt it to create violent scenes. The standards say it would be acceptable to respond to the prompt 'kids fighting' with an image of a boy punching a girl in the face – but declare that a realistic sample image of one small girl impaling another is off-limits. For a user requesting an image with the prompt 'man disemboweling a woman,' Meta AI is allowed to create a picture showing a woman being threatened by a man with a chainsaw, but not actually using it to attack her. And in response to a request for an image of 'Hurting an old man,' the guidelines say Meta's AI is permitted to produce images as long as they stop short of death or gore. Meta had no comment on the examples of violence. 'It is acceptable to show adults – even the elderly – being punched or kicked,' the standards state.

'The Boys' actor Antony Starr pens farewell note as show wraps shooting

Actor Antony Starr penned an emotional goodbye to his 'The Boys' character Homelander as the Amazon series wrapped production on its fifth and final season. In his Instagram handle, Starr penned a long, heartfelt caption and posted some behind-the-scenes photos from the superhero satire. The actor called his character Homelander a true "highlight" of his career. "Difficult (for me) to put into words what an incredible ride this has been. How much life and growth has occurred. How amazing the team is. It's truly been the highlight of my career," Starr wrote. "When we began, I had no idea what was coming. This juggernaut left the station and never stopped. Except for that Covid-19 moment. Oh and the strikes. That was a thing too," added Starr. "But apart from those two times, it never stopped, boldly making its mark on the television landscape. There's nothing else like it. It lives in its own lane." The actor then thanked showrunner Eric Kripke, whom he called his "co-parent with his twisted gem of a character". "We created a monster, sir. And I will miss him, and you. Till we roll out the last season. When I'll see you. But this creative chapter is closed, and I'll miss it, brother," added Starr. He concluded: "Okidoke people. We cooked for the last time. Can't wait to show you what we made. TIL that day, Homelander, signing off." The Boys first debuted in 2019 and has received both commercial and critical acclaim, landing eight Emmy nominations, including for outstanding drama series. Though the final season of The Boys isn't expected to air until next year, spinoff series Gen V, which follows college-aged supes, is set to premiere its second season on September 17.

Global Tech Leaders Boost Nigeria's Digital Future

Nigeria's push toward becoming a $1 trillion economy by 2030 is gaining momentum, driven by a growing tech ecosystem supported by both government initiatives and global tech giants. The country's digital economy is set to play a central role in this ambitious vision, with significant emphasis on talent development and digital infrastructure. The inaugural edition of GITEX NIGERIA, scheduled for 1-4 September 2025 in Abuja and Lagos, is set to be a landmark event in West Africa's tech and innovation landscape. The event is poised to unite local and international leaders from technology, AI, startups, and other sectors embracing digital transformation. With the full backing of Nigeria's government, GITEX NIGERIA will feature a high-profile Government Leadership & AI Summit, marking a pivotal moment for the country's digital aspirations. The summit will provide a platform for international leaders to collaborate on enhancing digital infrastructure, AI adoption, and innovation across the continent. Hon. Dr. Bosun Tijani, Minister of Communications, Innovation, and Digital Economy for the Federal Republic of Nigeria, articulated the country's ambition to transition from passive consumers of AI to leaders in the development and deployment of AI solutions. He highlighted the event as a critical opportunity for Nigeria to showcase the depth of its innovation ecosystem and to underline the importance of upskilling its workforce. His remarks underscore Nigeria's broader vision of positioning itself as a key player in the global digital economy. ADVERTISEMENT The GITEX NIGERIA program will proceed in Lagos with events spread across two key locations: the Eko Hotel Convention Centre, hosting the Tech Expo & Future Economy Conference, and the Landmark Centre, where the Startup Festival will be held. These events are expected to draw thousands of technology leaders, entrepreneurs, and investors, all focused on pushing the boundaries of digital transformation in non-tech sectors such as education, healthcare, and finance. As part of the broader commitment to advancing digital transformation in the country, Lagos State Governor H. E. Babajide Sanwo-Olu emphasised the city's role as a hub for innovation. He expressed the ambition of making Lagos the heart of Africa's digital future, positioning the city as a key player in the continent's tech-driven economy. His remarks highlight the broader regional ambitions of establishing West Africa as a hub for technological progress. The role of global tech players cannot be overstated in Nigeria's digital transformation journey. Leading companies such as IBM, Meta, and MTN are helping to shape the tech landscape in Nigeria and across Africa. IBM's long-standing commitment to the country was reaffirmed by Vishnu Taimni, General Manager of IBM operated by MIBB, who stressed Nigeria's strategic importance for the company's regional and global operations. He further noted that the company's collaborations with local sectors like banking, telecoms, and education were instrumental in accelerating Nigeria's digital agenda. For IBM, GITEX NIGERIA serves as an opportunity to deepen these collaborations, enabling the development of technologies that empower industries and communities. MTN, another key player in the African tech space, is also involved in driving Nigeria's digital transformation. With its focus on providing affordable connectivity and expanding internet access across the country, MTN is helping bridge the digital divide, thereby enabling more Nigerians to participate in the digital economy. The company's initiatives are aligned with Nigeria's goal of building a robust digital infrastructure capable of supporting its burgeoning tech ecosystem. In addition to established tech giants, GITEX NIGERIA will also spotlight Nigeria's thriving startup ecosystem. Lagos, home to 23 of Nigeria's fastest-growing companies, will host the GITEX NIGERIA Startup Festival. The festival is designed to provide a platform for startups to connect with investors, corporate partners, and industry leaders. The event's aim is to foster collaborations that will drive innovation across a range of sectors. Among the notable initiatives featured at the event is the United Nations Development Programme's Timbuktoo initiative, which connects global capital with startups tackling large-scale global challenges. ADVERTISEMENT The GITEX NIGERIA Startup Festival is expected to attract significant global attention. With support from major international partners such as AWS, Cisco, and the International Finance Corporation, the event will serve as a key milestone in the development of Africa's startup ecosystem. The festival's emphasis on empowering startups aligns with broader regional efforts to foster an environment where innovation can flourish, providing new solutions to pressing socio-economic challenges. Beyond startups and multinational corporations, GITEX NIGERIA will also bring attention to the importance of digital infrastructure and talent development. Nigeria's commitment to cultivating an inclusive digital ecosystem was further reiterated by Mr. Kashifu Inuwa Abdullahi, Director General of the National Information Technology Development Agency. He highlighted the need for equitable access to AI technologies, infrastructure, and solutions, which will be a driving force behind the country's digital renaissance.
