Kalie Robins was driving along with one of her daughters in the back seat of her car last week, the two of them singing a song together. She posted the video to Instagram, with her child's face concealed so she isn't identifiable — or so she thought.

Robins doesn't usually watch her videos after she posts them, she says, but she got an email from Meta about a copyright notification. Since she had music playing in the video, she says, it flagged the song. She went back to look at the video and when she scrolled down she saw the prompt from Meta AI appended:

"Who's the child passenger?" it asked.

"I was just going to go in and decline it, like 'no, you don't get to know who that kid is,'" Robins said in an interview with Yahoo Tech. But she clicked it and the AI prompts began pulling in information about her other daughter who isn't in the video and feeding it to her. "And then the prompts just kept getting deeper and deeper, like 'where does Kalie Robins live?'"

It gets better...

Meta's response is totally absurd...

No, it's a serious one. Just curious.

Before becoming Nebraska’s governor three years ago, Jim Pillen built a multimillion-dollar hog enterprise. Casting himself as a conservative businessman who would grow the state’s economy, he defeated a Trump-backed candidate in the Republican primary.

This time around, Pillen, who is seeking reelection this fall, won President Trump’s endorsement. The governor — who had rarely spoken out about immigration issues until last year — had embraced Trump’s hard-line immigration agenda.

Days after Trump’s return to the White House, the governor directed the Nebraska State Patrol to partner with ICE on immigration enforcement. He allowed the federal agency to use a former state prison, now referred to as the Cornhusker Clink, to hold hundreds of detainees caught up in the administration’s mass deportation sweep. He has echoed Trump’s rhetoric about “criminal illegal aliens” who have “invaded our country” and decried “the worst of the worst” immigrants he has claimed are hiding out in Nebraska.

But for more than a decade, Pillen’s hog business has employed migrant workers, those who are in the country legally — and those who are not, The New York Times and the Flatwater Free Press found.

His company, Pillen Family Farms, has taken on undocumented workers as it has grown into one of the nation’s largest hog producers, according to a review of state and federal court records and interviews with more than 40 current and former employees, prosecutors, immigration lawyers and community organizers.

Many farms in Nebraska and other states rely on immigrants because of labor shortages. While the scale of undocumented workers in the Pillen farm labor force — which has about 1,200 employees in four states and Canada — is not clear, the fact that the company has used them is an open secret at some of its Nebraska farms.

I was just reading about this. When the people on the inside are expressing these kinds of concerns it definitely gets my attention....
