Well for us Europeans, GDPR explicitly allows them to store pretty much anything if somebody can claim it’s for safety.

It’s literally just complicating things and providing zero reassurance to us AI customers.

For safety - hmm new for me (European), please elaborate.

You don’t need user consent to retain data that’s arguably needed to provide the service itself. I guess, safety falls into that category. Training on that data is probably a grey area, if they can guarantee it won’t contain PII. They have stolen all the internet, so I wouldn’t bet highly on their restraint.

It's very easy to prove that training is not necessary to provide the service, because whenever you're using a model it's static and the training only maybe goes into new models.

It doesn't say for whose safety. It's certainly not yours.
