Meta’s WhatsApp Enhances AI Capabilities with Commitment to User Privacy
WhatsApp is rolling out a new feature called Private Processing that lets users take advantage of AI tools — like summarizing unread messages or getting writing suggestions — without giving up their privacy.
The company, owned by Meta, says the new feature keeps your messages secure by processing them in a protected space that even WhatsApp and Meta can’t access. This means you can use helpful AI features without worrying that your chats are being read or stored.
WhatsApp has built the system to make sure it can’t be misused or tampered with. It also allows outside experts to check how it works, making the process more transparent and trustworthy.
The move is similar to what Apple has done with its own privacy-focused AI system. It also comes as Meta launches its new Meta AI app, offering users new ways to interact with artificial intelligence.
Private Processing will be available to WhatsApp users in the coming weeks.
