If you choose to use the Workspace extensions, your content from Gmail, Docs, and Drive is not seen by human reviewers, used by Bard to show you ads, or used to train the Bard model.

Google is literally evil and everyone who works there wants to kick puppies seems to be the prevailing sentiment here.

Which isn't true but people really like to pretend the world is black and white instead of infinitely nuanced shades of gray.
