j45: I wonder if it will be claimed one day that the AI got snoopy and didn't listen.

balamatom: LMAO, I just looked at a smartphone once today, saw it say "Gemini can look at your screen now" (CoPilot outrage style) and noped the fuck out of the building.I expect that info to be completely sufficient to dox me; in the meantime does anyone know how to make the camera in Waydroid not crash the entire stack?

0xbadcafebee: [delayed]

gnabgib: This is a blog post, not a Show HN. https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html

phyzome: If it asked you 10 times, that's 10 chances for you to mis-click."Opt-in" is a lie when the user is harassed or tricked into "accepting".

mystraline: No, this is a warning of the current sloperation and data exfiltration by the "Dont. Be evil" folks.

l0gicpath: Sorry but it’s not really an opinion for you to contest it, it’s a well defined guideline of what makes a Show HN post vs a normal link share. If the OP wants to add commentary to their submission they could use “Tell HN” or simply point at the actual blog post and write a comment.

Trasmatta: Moved all my photos over to Ente recently, and I'm very happy to no longer be feeding all of that data into the Google machine. I'd highly recommend everyone else move their photos out as well (Immich is another good option).

amazingamazing: barring fully local AI, not sure how it can work without using your data, by design. it's personalized or not.

Tepix: You could instead use a trustworthy LLM API provider instead of an American one bound by legislation like the US CLOUD act.Confidential compute is another option.

jimmydoe: idk why but Gemini can't even read gmail attachments

johndhi: Do they train Gemini other people use based on this or just generate images for me?
