Transferred prompts? As in sent my prompts through my browser to be processed on computers in China, exactly like I would fucking expect? Am I going to have to read this fucking article?


Okay so there's not much there, but it sounds like the issue is really associating personal data with the prompts so they can build a profile of exactly which kinds of porn I like. I assume every AI company is doing that, which is why I really like to keep my prompts outlandish.

Let me put on my surprised face.

Did you already? I can't tell the difference. Are you even surprised?

AI is a surveillance technology.

LLMs themselves certainly aren't tho

Not saying there aren't any issues with them but still

And China a surveillance state. This was a given.

Wait, people thought they didn’t? I would be shocked if any LLM company didn’t do that.

No link to a source in the article. I searched for it and found a CNBC article that posts a link to the "report" from the South Korean Data Protection Authority, but its a bad link. I dont read Korean so its difficult to search any further, but I found no evidence that the south korean authority made this claim.

I am shocked. A Chinese company monitoring everyone and everything. This is beyond belief.
