Meta’s artificial intelligence bots across Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp were still telling inquisitive users that the US president is Joe Biden – despite Donald Trump’s

Former US President Joe Biden’s presidency was briefly omitted from Google’s list of US presidents. The issue, attributed to a ‘data error’, raised questions about tech giants’ reliability and neutrality in handling politically sensitive content.

The issue with the search engine results was noticed by users on social media sites X and Bluesky early on Thursday morning.

It was at least the third emergency procedure Meta has experienced this week related to the U.S. presidential transition, the source told Reuters.
