    If anyone assumes their AI chats are private, they must be stupid. Of course, all AI companies are going to evaluate chat sessions for improving their models whether it's disclosed in the privacy policy or not. They're investing tonnes of money into this, so your privacy is a negligible problem for them.

      Would a regular person be stupid if they believe what OpenAI promises? They may just toggle the privacy promising switches in the settings as per what they advertise. They don't expect things to leak out after that.

        Promises from strangers that will likely suffer no consequence for violating them?

        Some people have forgotten that we are part of nature, red in tooth and claw.

          We've seen this before - it's called the Eliza effect. People appear emotionally driven to communicate privately with a machine even if they understand logically it's a machine with chat logs that will be read by people.
