Last week a tweet went viral asking whether Google's AI Bard was trained on Gmail data. The question was underlined by the fact that Bard itself said it was trained on "Google Search, Gmail and other data".
Google themselves were quick to reply explaining that
"Bard is an early experiment based on Large Language Models and will make mistakes. It is not trained on Gmail data."
so, who do you believe the AI or the company that made the AI Google 🤨😆
"We do not use personal data from your Gmail account or other private apps and services to improve Bard."
