Google quiere adquirir los datos internos de Spirit Airlines por 10 millones de dólares para entrenar sus modelos de IA.
El acuerdo supuestamente incluye 100 millones de correos electrónicos, 500 millones de mensajes de Microsoft Teams y registros de empleados que contienen información de nóminas e impuestos.
Más de 120 legisladores de EE.UU. han expresado preocupaciones sobre la privacidad de los empleados y el riesgo de exposición de información sensible.
Google afirma que la información personal será excluida o desidentificada por un tercero independiente antes de que se transfieran los datos.
La quiebra de Spirit plantea una pregunta importante: ¿deberían venderse las comunicaciones y registros laborales de los empleados para ayudar a entrenar la IA de un gigante tecnológico?
Un tribunal de quiebras está programado para considerar el acuerdo el 14 de octubre.

A prominent German politician like Norbert Röttgen can have 150,000 followers and international visibility, yet feel unable to move because his audience is locked into infrastructure controlled by someone else.
That *is* power.
And every politician, journalist and institution that concludes "I cannot leave because my audience is there" reinforces it.
Tonight, Röttgen argued that Europe needs to regain power in an ever-changing international order. Technological dependence is part of the same power dynamic.
Perhaps our representatives can discuss power without fully recognizing how much power lies in controlling information and the infrastructure through which it flows.
Our political communication remains heavily dependent on platforms controlled by tech oligarchs, who have the power to influence and potentially undermine our democracies.
