WhatsApp is navigating the complex landscape of artificial intelligence and user privacy with the introduction of new AI-driven features. The platform is emphasizing its dedication to maintaining end-to-end encryption while enabling AI capabilities through a system called ‘Private Processing’. This innovative approach is designed to allow cloud-based AI functionality without granting Meta, or any other entity, access to the content of private conversations. While WhatsApp touts this as a significant step forward in privacy-preserving AI, security professionals are observing the system closely, noting that potential vulnerabilities could still exist despite the advanced privacy measures implemented.
