Corporations are only people when it benefits them to be. All the advantages, none of the accountability.
Every breath you take, every keystroke you make, he'll be watching you!
ohhh can't you seeee, you're the one for theemmm
I get the appeal of this, but I feel this is part of a broader problem of relying on AI for problems that already have elegant, simple solutions. Like relying on LLM's to tell you what was the last google doc that you viewed is just not sustainable and creates bad habits. Soon people will ask what was the last tab I was just in, instead of using a keyboard shortcut and or having proper tab management.
Imagine using it for your code editor, instead of using the built-in functionality of jump-lists, marks, fuzzy finders and so on.... Or switching to an editor that has these things. What file was I just in? Where did I just write this function?
"When asked, the AI even double checks if the document was shared in a group chat with his coworkers."
How about learning to just use search?
I wonder if at some point we will just get a completely A.I. interface? Like no buttons, no text fields, nothing for people to worry their pretty little heads about and get confused with. You have to describe what you want done to the A.I. who will do it for you. "You missed a comma just after the word 'backwards' but before the 'the'. No not that one… yes you got it. Can you undo your previous change that you did by mistake? God fucking dammit Gemini. Ok I'm sorry, can we keep working?"
I'm shocked that it wasn't already doing so.
So I'm not crazy for running it in my web browser in a private window any time I use it? Good.
Best isolate it in VM on a separate, air-gapped system you never turn on.

So like Facebook?
meta cyborg, zuckerbot wants to scan your face and daily lives(pervert glasses) and simulate reality.
