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.
It’s not a TOC, you don’t have to agree to it. They’re just kind of telling you what they feel like they can get away with. I don’t see anywhere in the new terms where they outright assert that they own it though, but they just kinda say “Yo, if we can see it, we’re going to use it to train AI”.
That’s what Google does with search and advertising, isn’t it? They take everything they can see and use it to make money.
