And Google is bringing AI to private text messages. It will read all of your previous messages. On iOS? Better hope nothing important was said to anyone with an Android phone (not that I trust Apple either).

The implications are terrifying. Nudes, private conversations, passwords, identifying information like your home address, etc. There's a lot of scary scenarios. I also predict that Bard becomes closet racist real fast.

We need strict data privacy laws with teeth. Otherwise corporations will just keep rolling out poorly tested, unsecured, software without a second thought.

AI can do some cool stuff, but the leaks, misinformation, fraud, etc., scare the shit out of me. With a Congress aged ~60 years old on average, I'm not counting on them to regulate or even understand any of this.
