Yes, this will definitely happen
Step 1: move data from files into a database
Step 2: delete files
Step 3: press release that we just deleted the files
Google, probably
Can they even untrain an IA with a given set of Data?
"Bard, forget this ever existed"
"Sure, I'll make a copy so I won't forget to forget"
Machine Unlearning is a very active field right now but basically ~~no~~ not really
You laugh but it would be really dumb for this not to happen. They would be held liable and most of the data they collect doesn't come from incognito
Sure they will be held liable. Just like everything else they are held liable for.
They aren't liable for much
That’s @snooggums@kbin.social’s point
Why isn't there a sarcasm flare on lemmy (heck, on the Internet)
/s
Back in my day, we didn’t need it! Sarcasm was much more understood on LUE, Gen[M]ay, SA, and DDRFreak!
(I haven’t been to these sites in a long time, so please don’t crucify me if they’re shitholes now. Other than DDRFreak. RIP DDRFreak)
That's the point... so your original statement does not carry much weight.
you are way too optimistic my man, haha
