Türkiye's competition watchdog on Friday said it had launched an investigation into Meta over its artificial intelligence practices and imposed an interim measure on the tech giant.
The investigation covers the economic entity comprising Meta Platforms, Inc., Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, WhatsApp LLC, and Meta Platforms Istanbul Bilişim Hizmetleri Ltd.
The Competition Authority (RK) said the decision followed a preliminary inquiry into whether Meta violated the competition law.
The probe will assess whether the company breached rules by integrating its Meta AI service into WhatsApp and restricting third-party AI providers from offering services through the messaging platform.
