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.
If posted to a public forum like this one, non-commercial usage is obviously required. On the biggest (i.e., for-profit) social platforms, commercial use is also required (if I’m understanding those terms correctly, at least).
There is stuff publicly available online that has restrictions on commercial use. Because I’d rather see how open source AI generation goes, I’d prefer to have non-commercial efforts get that sweet data without giving it to the major tech companies.
