Social media giant Meta Platforms, formerly known as Facebook, is only the latest company to draw legal heat over its technology -- specifically, its artificial intelligence (AI) innovations. In this episode of "The AI/ML Show" on Motley Fool Live, recorded on Feb. 16, Fool.com contributors Toby Bordelon and Jason Hall discuss how the debate of AI versus privacy continues to rage on. Toby Bordelon: We talked about data protection and privacy, I think, a decent amount with Facebook, and you can see what happens when that goes badly. If you don't follow those rules, $650 million with maybe more to come, and that can put a damper on what you can do. You want data to train AI well.

What is that to you? Why don't we start with Jose? Artificial intelligence to me it means something man-made or artificial, that has the ability to learn.
