Meta AI Bot Hacking Incident

Meta gave zero updates about the AI bot hacking incident until it got to the press. And when they do, it’s just tucked as replies under someone’s tweet Congrats on laying off T&S and automating the accounts support with gullible AI bots tho, hope you liked that promo packet. Hackers say they used Meta's AI support chatbot to change emails tied to Instagram accounts, amid a wave of high-profile account takeovers; Meta fixed the issue issue has been resolved and we are ...ing impacted accounts. Even my Instagram account got hacked The password got changed without my knowledge and I was getting different password reset attempts throughout yesterday...

A screenshot of posts by Jane Manchun Wong discusses Meta’s delayed response to an AI support-bot hacking incident, alongside a news headline and a Meta response. The punchline is that even the person criticizing Meta’s security and layoffs had her own Instagram account hacked, making the situation feel especially ironic. It can be shared as a reaction to corporate incompetence, security failures, or ironic bad luck.
