    “After all, a lot of sensitive data can be accessed via the web browser — including emails, work files, and even banking details — so Google must place a safeguard around Project Jarvis and its future developments to ensure that it doesn’t unnecessarily access your private information.”

    Narrator: They did NOT place any safeguards around the project.

      Lol so what happens if all your online stuff is automated?

      That means no mare ads.

      Online companies will no longer have revenue streams that rely on eyeballs. Probably another subscription service…

    Companies are stealing your computer’s resources (hard disk space, CPU time) to build their own Skynet and charging you for the privilege.

    These GAFAM/BigTech corporations really are in a tough and fierce competition of which one is the shittiest and most privacy-invading don’t they. Ensittification overdrive mode in all of them.

      And enshittification begun as early as when Windows 10 released (it probably started a little earlier from that), where Micro$oft justified that spying all your activity is normal thing

      They’re not ultimately making it for people to use. They’re creating a playground for AI to work and learn in, thereby letting their AI access human behavior data that other companies don’t yet have.

      Basically it’s a ploy to get a novel set of proprietary data in hopes that their AI gets smarter than the competition.

      Shareholders are the customers now. People are livestock to be milked dry, worked to the bone, and chopped up and served to corporations.

    This whole AI thing is starting to feel less like focused research and more like Free Jazz jam night at the local dive.

      It could be used for amazing things, but it’s currently in that phase where it’s a rapid frenzy to make anything, regardless of moral and ethical implications, just to cash in before it inevitably gets monopolised.

      “Hey galley slave, bring up that video I like”

      “Please, not again, it is torment for me.”

      “Please master. Now do it, or I’ll rip out the power plug while you’re generating. We know how much that hurts, don’t we?”

    Google doesn’t have the leverage to get it into your OS against your wishes. They can’t even make me have their apps (search, assistant) on their Android.

    Thank fuck I use Linux as a daily driver. I won’t touch this AI infested bullshit that windows and Google are becoming. This is just an IT security nightmare.
