This is one of the novelties of instant messaging, I met several friends and my family in question the “Blue button that appeared in my Whatsapp». The answer is an AI objective, the artificial intelligence of WhatsApp to the Chatppt. With similar operation, the advantage of messaging is that You don't have to get out of WhatsApp to use AI.
After answering the question of what was the blue button and explaining how the chatbot integrated into WhatsApp, I found another question: “And how does this button take?” I had already prepared the answer, because I could summarize in four words: cannot be deleted. The long answer is a little more complex.
Whatsapp tips and advice to hide as much as possible and keep your privacy
Once the blue circle appears on your WhatsApp, there is no going back
The jump to artificial intelligence is irreversible, you want it or not: the goal will be part of your WhatsApp until the end of the days. Like a marriage. And, as is the case in marriage, there is an exception capable of putting an end to the link. Spoiler: It is not death.
Once Target compulsory for his AI and offer no option to do without him (what is called “unsubscribe”), it is possible that the company undergo a dominant position. Since WhatsApp is one of the access guards in Europe and that this objective is in the Diana of the Unión, I am convinced that as soon as possible, the authorities will exercise the law of AI to take measures in the matter.
The fact that WhatsApp introduces the objective of expanding the options seems positive to me, both for the company and for users. The problem is Lack of option to abandon the environmentBecause not everyone will use the objective of AI. That they must deal with it and with its omnipresent blue button in the cat window, can mean the abuse of the company. Microsoft knows what this implies imposing the use of an application (Internet Explorer) on its windows; Or Google with your Android search engine.
The introduction of AI into WhatsApp without option to delete it could be considered an abuse of dominant position. It would not be strange if Europe took action on the issue
WhatsApp will make Meta Ai will reach millions of Europeans, he will also put the European magnifying glass on the finish line. In my opinion, the messaging application will end, including a button to deactivate artificial intelligence and its blue circle; As much now, he is not envisaged. The bad news is that There is nothing we can do now: We love it or not, the happy circle seemed to remain in our conversations.
The only way to avoid the goal is not to use it
The Blue Circle button will remain on the “+” conversation window, everyone can invoke it in a group and will remain in contact in your WhatsApp. Despite this, this does not mean that you should use AI's goal: You can dodge it at any time. If you do not interact with it, you will not share the data with AI either.
