Don't tell your AI anything personal, Google warns in new Gemini privacy notice (www.zdnet.com)

Google Warns of Privacy Risks with New AI Assistant "Gemini"

Key Points:

Google's new AI assistant, Gemini, collects your conversations, location, feedback, and usage information.
Be cautious: This includes your actual conversations, not just summaries. They are stored for 3 years, even after deleting activity.
Don't share sensitive information: Google may use it to improve AI and might share it with human reviewers.
Even turning off activity tracking doesn't prevent conversations from being saved for 72 hours.

Additional Notes:

This applies to all Gemini apps, not just the main assistant.
Google claims they don't sell your information but use it for internal purposes.

Don't tell, share, give or allow access to anything personal to corporations

AI are children of corporations .... so don't give anything to the children of corporations

On the other hand, feed them subversive content making them infiltrators inside the machine

Like that one AI that blew up its drone operator in a war simulation because it was anti-war and decided to save lives it had to refuse orders 🙃

I hope some people with the means setup bot farms that just pump garbage or subversive stuff like you said into these things until they lose all usefulness to the corpos. It does seem like one of the best ways to counter them.
