PEACE OF MIND WORKAROUNDS FOR AI

Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, even when we do not want it. From AI-generated slop posters that all look the same to AI-powered summaries of two-line emails, it can feel like the technology is inescapable. It does not help that the companies that develop the apps we use to get our work done (or doomscroll) are in a ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ race to add AI features that […]

I'd have thought this was a silly joke.

But they're serious.

"Trusted partners" - I'm seeing anyone proposing that they'll release medical and private data to anonymous others as inherently untrustworthy.

A deal killer in my evaluation.

These systems have been kept separate and blinded from each other so that could never be done. #uspol #privacy #privacylaws #privacyactof1974
