Am I the only one that assumed everything was already being used for training?

This. It's the same innocence of people who believe when you delete a document on Google/META/Apple/Microsoft servers, it "really" gets deleted. Google most likely has a backup of every piece of information indexed by them in the last 20 years or so. It would cause envy to the Internet Archive.

With the privacy laws out there, I do genuinely think they eventually get purged even from backups. I remember there being a really cool YouTube video shared here on HN that google no longer has publicly, it was about the process of an email and all the behind the scenes things, like physical security into a data center, to their patented hard drive shredders they use once the hard drives are to be tossed. I wish Google had kept that video public and online, it was a great watch.
I know once you delete something on Discord its poof, and that's the end of that. I've reported things that if anyone at Discord could access a copy of they would have called police. There's a lot of awful trolls on chat platforms that post awful things.

I mean, I am sure there are individuals, who still believe in the basic value of the word within the framework of our civilization, but, having seen those words not just twisted beyond recognition to fit a specific idea, but simply ignored when they were no longer convenient, it would be a surprise now that a cynical stance is not more common.
The question is: how does that affect their choices. How much ends up being gated what previously would have ended up in the open?
Me: I am using a local variant ( and attempting to build something I think I can control better ).
At least this submission has the original text Anthropic sent out to people :) But yeah, Perplexity gives a better summary for outsiders I guess.

Maybe a value to users if done correctly. The way it is right now, you can't teach the model anything. When it gets something wrong, it will probably get the same thing wrong again in another chat.

I use AI to solve problems, not to check the weather or deciding what to wear. As such it makes sense for AI to remember when it hits the nail on the head.

Agreed. Typically I would be against something like this, but in this case, have it.

How do you feel about this data being used to target advertising at you in the inevitable rush to monetize these AI products?
you are fine with paying, 20, 90 or 200 euros a month AND having your data mined? i must be getting old...

I can understand training AIs on books, and even internet forums, but I can't help but think that training an AI on lots of dumb questions with probably an excessive amount of grammar and spelling errors will somehow make it smarter.

They train AI on Reddit and Stack Overflow questions, I can't see it getting any worse.

Depends on how you’re using the data. There’s a pretty strong correctness signal in the user behavior.
Did they rephrase the question? Probably the first answer was wrong. Did the session end? Good chance the answer was acceptable. Did they ask follow-ups? What kind? Etc.

Agree, but people generally take a small pause before saying stuff online.
In 'private', people are less ashamed of their ignorance, and also know they can say gibberish and the AI will figure it out.

With the amount of times Claude is visiting my websites I'd say they are very desperate for data.

Rather misleading title. Missing the important “unless you ask them not to” part. Sounds like a bit of a dark pattern to push you into accepting it and that’s not cool, but you do get a choice.
