The Indian government has summoned Meta's global team to discuss concerns over child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and artificial intelligence (AI) on August 5-6. This meeting is a significant step by the Centre to address the growing concerns over online safety and the role of social media platforms in regulating harmful content.

The meeting will provide a platform for the government to raise its concerns with Meta's global team and discuss possible solutions to tackle the issue of CSAM and AI. The government has been actively working to ensure that social media platforms take responsibility for the content shared on their platforms.

In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the amount of CSAM being shared online, and social media platforms have come under scrutiny for their role in regulating such content. The Indian government has been actively working to address this issue and has taken several steps to ensure that social media platforms take responsibility for the content shared on their platforms.
