I don't have Facebook or anything Meta.

But what can or will happen to people who let Meta train its AI with their data, selfies, locations, and behavior patterns etc? Thanks in advance

I don't think you can do anything about it, anything public is going to get scraped and fed to A.I. Even if you don't consent to people using your pictures, its going to happen regardless. The best thing to do is keep private things private and assume the worst for anything you or others make public.

As overly pessimistic as it sounds, this is really it.

Unlearn the notion that you can live part of your private life on large platforms (in the widest sense).
