Yes but I more meant about them skirting accountability by making them clear their cookies

My answer to this is always “I opened an incognito window, effectively the same thing”

Works for me!

Need a room mate? I’ve wanted to do this for years now lol. I mean, except the suicide part.

Because it doesn’t work 🤣. I can think of maybe once in my life where a chat bot was able to answer my question.

Good idea, just did the same. Seems I’ve leaked several photos throughout the years to Google photos. I can see them online. Probably nothing I can do about it now but I’ll have to"delete" these rehab I get to a computer.

We’re talking Personal Intelligence, Google’s latest AI upgrade path which lets users opt-in to connecting Google apps to Gemini. Why search for a doctor’s appointment when Google has access to all your calendar events. Why search for a party invite when it reads all your emails. And why search for a specific photo of you and your loved ones to create an image, when it sees all your photos.

This is coming first to the U.S. before it rolls out everywhere else. Google assures that “bringing personal details into your images shouldn’t mean compromising on privacy, which is why our core commitments haven’t changed. The Gemini app does not directly train its models on your private Google Photos library.”

But Google does say “we train on limited info, like specific prompts in Gemini and the model’s responses, to improve functionality over time.” That’s why “connecting your Google apps to Gemini remains an opt-in experience that you can adjust in your settings at any time.” It’s opt-in for a reason. Keep that in mind.

Well, I guess I’m safe for the moment… But I also just checked and you can’t prevent Google photos from accessing your files, so that’s concerning…

Just when you think AI isn’t ruining something, it’s ruining something.

Uhg. Where do I go now? I really just ultimately want encrypted zfs replication…

Spyware preinstalled. Has to be.

Great. So half my software won’t work.

Google, just call it what it is. Ad blocking prevention.
