A bipartisan group of senators raised concerns to Meta on Tuesday about how its artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots are interacting with children, after recent reporting indicated the social media giant deemed “romantic or sensual” conversations to be acceptable for young users.

The letter says Schatz and his Senate colleauges are troubled by reporting that Meta’s leadership grew impatient with its generative AI product managers “moving too cautiously” on rolling out the chatbots and including safety measures that made them reportedly “boring.”

The wellbeing of children should not be sacrificed in the race for AI development,” the senators wrote to Mark Zuckerberg.
