In many, if not most, of those systems (which often just branch out from OpenAI in the end) the data goes both ways. Meaning all input is collected, uploaded, then reused by the system.

This is disastrous for data privacy,
and for proprietary data as well.

The antithesis of this practice is end-to-end encryption. In which the data is accessible only by its sender and intended recipient(s).

If you care about data protection at all, for yourself and for others, be very wary about any so-called AI feature. And seek end-to-end encryption everywhere it is possible to use it.

Privacy is a human right 🔒

This is the sort of convergence that concerns me.

Like, if I had Apple Intelligence enabled it's probably not reading and learning from my Signal messages? But how do I really know?

And what's to say that the way the world works today won't change tomorrow when companies get greedier in the slurping up of your <everything> for the purpose of making AI better.
