i am not alt texting this, copied and pasted multiple tweets today

EDIT according to the message relay from doubledealer this message is incorrect

from malwarebytes We’ve updated this article after realising we contributed to a perfect storm of misunderstanding around a recent change in the wording and placement of Gmail’s smart features. The settings themselves aren’t new, but the way Google recently rewrote and surfaced them led a lot of people (including us) to believe Gmail content might be used to train Google’s AI models, and that users were being opted in automatically. After taking a closer look at Google’s documentation and reviewing other reporting, that doesn’t appear to be the case.

    That info is from November.

    Ninja edit. In November - I turned off all the AI stuff. I just checked and it’s all still off.

      They’re still reading it 100%. Stop using Gmail if you don’t want to give your data to AI.
