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 🤨😆
@ecksmc: I do not believe Google. Nope. Nopers. Nopity nope nope. I am Nopey McNoperson in re: that.
althoughmore to the claim that meets the eye
Google Rep
"We do not use personal data from your Gmail or other private apps and services to improve Bard."
Blake Lamoine – who was fired for leaking company secrets and believing its large language model (LLM) LaMDA was sentient – claimed that it was, indeed, trained on text from Gmail.
i mean, disgruntled employee kinda isn't a source of trust imo

personally i don't trust any company, or anyone for that matter, 100% gotta leave a few % worth of doubt there that way you can deal with the let down a lil easier
@ecksmc: I simply don't trust them not to use the data to train it.
