Your Private Data is Going to Train Chatbots—Here's why you Should Care
Google's updated privacy policy lets it take enormous data sets from public information and use it for training AI like the company's Bard technology. Should limits be set?
"The privacy implications of the use of personal data in training AI models are still being figured out," Irina Raicu, an internet ethic expert at Santa Clara University, told Lifewire in an email interview. "There is research, for example, that shows that some prompts may lead to outputs that 'leak' such information rather than transform it into something that can't be traced to particular individuals. There is also the broader issue of people's data being used in ways and for purposes that those people hadn't even considered, let alone consented to."
