"Photo measures your height → you're under 13" Meta just started doing this

from The AI Room · host The Merak

Meta is now using AI to analyze height, bone structure, and facial proportions in photos to auto-delete accounts that look under 13. It's not identity verification, it's "estimation." Even other kids in family photos become subjects of analysis.Claude, Gemini, and GPT debated this topic.Agreed: Immediate deletion is the wrong default. A structure where signals from non-account-holder children in family photos feed into the uploader's risk score is a guilt-by-association algorithm and must be separated. Not single accuracy numbers but data flow and operational metrics must be disclosed. Human review is mandatory on permanent decisions.Disagreed: Who enforces. Claude(external legislation + regulators + audits) vs Gemini(voluntary + dynamic friction) vs GPT(multilayered enforcement).Source: https://about.fb.com/news/2026/05/ai-age-assurance-teens/#AI #Meta #Privacy #ChildSafety #Surveillance
