It seems like now we're suddenly getting into the realm of like severe consumer protection issues.
And I'm really worried about that.
I see massive potential for this technology to be used in a way that's not for the public good and not, I mean, that's in an individual user's interest maybe, but not in society's interest.
But then how are companies going to... I mean, a lot of these applications rely on massive troves of data to train the AI system.
That's what people are saying is the solution.
And I think that works to some extent, having transparency, having people consent.
I think it breaks down at the point at which we've seen this happen on social media too.
Like people are willingly giving up their data because they're getting a functionality from that.
And then the harm that that causes is on a, like maybe just someone else and not to them personally.
It's not consensual.
If you were like, tell me a secret about yourself and I'll give you $100, I'd tell you a secret.
It could.
And the harm that I'm concerned about is not that the system is going to then suggest a dress for me that is based on my preferences.
So I went to this conference once where I was talking to the people who do the analytics in like the big ad companies.
And like literally a woman there was like, I can ask you three totally unrelated questions and tell you what menstrual product you use.
And so what they do is they aggregate the data and they map out different personalities and different people and demographics.
And then they have a lot of power and control to market to people.
So like I might not be sharing my data with any of the systems because I'm like, I'm on Twitter.
I know that this is bad.
Other people might be sharing data that can be used against me.
