      They’re talking about how willingly paint eaters like yourself hand over all their personal info to said AI agents, and you got all defensive about the wrong thing. The quip about what it responds with was just that, a quip. The larger conversation is about privacy. The conversation probably went over your head because you’ve used AI so much you’ve regressed into an infantile simpleton who happily bends over for corporate data collection.

        The larger conversation is about privacy

        Ok lets have that discussion in 2026:

        People will give their personal info over if it provides them with something useful

        The conversation probably went over your head because you’ve used AI so much you’ve regressed into an infantile simpleton who happily bends over for corporate data collection.

        As an “simpleton who happily bends over for corporate data collection” and a “paint eater” I block most ads as I don’t feel they provide an improvement in my life

        However AI without my personal info is less useful, I use it all day every day for everything, it helps improve my life massively, Mistral itself has privacy controls built in that won’t collect or store hyper personal info unless you allow it which I have

        What else would you like to discuss?

          See that’s a meaningful response, even if I don’t personally agree with it. Your original reply did that annoying thing where someone hyperfixates on one tiny part of the comment and ignores the actual topic being discussed.

          Imagine if I replied to your comment with just “2026? A.I. has been a thing for much longer than that.” Like, yeah; but also that’s not the important part lol

          In reply to your actual comment at the end: It’s actually kind of a big problem with LLMs. For them to be useful, they need access to absolutely everything. This has privacy implications, and can even cause catastrophic errors like deleting the database

            Fair enough

            https://lumo.proton.me/ is available but if people find Claude/ChatGPT more useful and/or don’t care so I’m not sure what there is to discuss

            It’s like having a discussion about personal info and facebook, according to this site:

            https://www.demandsage.com/facebook-statistics/

            Facebook continues to be in the top 3 most used social media, with now 3.07 billion monthly active users (MAUs

            This is over 10 years after the cambridge analytica leak, it’s pretty clear most people don’t care
