Why did Snapchat AI post on my story and was it hacked?

SNAPCHATTERS wonder what happened to the My AI feature after accidentally posting a story.

There was also no response to chats, adding even more mystery to the situation.

And some users have wondered if the service might have been hacked.

So what really happened?

Why did my AI post her story on Snapchat?

My AI doesn’t post Snapchat Stories, so you can imagine the surprise when it suddenly did.

The photo showed what appeared to be a wall.

However, the service is now back up and running as usual.

Snapchat has responded to concerned users.

X – formerly known as Twitter – said the incident was nothing more than a “temporary outage” that was “now resolved”.

An outage rules out My AI being hacked.

Is my AI a real person on Snapchat?

No, my AI does not consist of a real person replying to messages.

My AI uses clever artificial intelligence to automatically chat with you about almost anything.
