An update to Google's privacy policy suggests that the entire public internet is fair game for it's AI projects. If Google can read your words, assume they belong to the company now, and expect that they’re nesting somewhere in the bowels of a chatbot.

This should come as no surprise to anyone who has been paying attention to Google, but it’s a reminder to get off of their services if you’re concerned about your data privacy. A Slashdot commenter wondered whether this also applies to the contents of emails on gmail. I’m going to assume it does.

    Every AI company already does this, Google are just being nice by telling you.

      But every AI company isn’t Google. Google is an information platform with access to more information than its competitors.

      I find that extremely problematic and absolutely anti-competitive.
