Meta has deleted all 28 of its AI character profiles following backlash over accusations of racism and offensive depictions of marginalized groups. The controversy arose after a Financial Times interview with Meta's VP of product for generative AI, which prompted users to rediscover the profiles, including problematic examples like "Liv," a depiction of a Black queer mother. Meta cited a "bug" in blocking these profiles as the reason for their removal.
