Attached: 1 image Slack is now using all content, including DMs, to train LLMs. They offer a thing they're calling an "opt-out." The opt-out (a) is only available to companies who are slack customers, not end users, and (b) doesn't actually opt-out. When a company account holder tries to opt-out, Slack says their data will still be used to train LLMs, but the results won't be shared with other companies. LOL no. That's not an opt-out. The way to opt-out is to stop using Slack. https://slack.com/intl/en-gb/trust/data-management/privacy-principles

    It’s not gonna burst, at least not the way I think you mean. Expectations will eventually come down to earth but everybody will still keep scraping human-produced content and train LLMs on it and generate stuff with it. That genie is out of the bottle and it’s here to stay.

      As long as they stop trying to treat it like a hammer and literally everything else like a nail, I’ll take it. It’s nfts all over again.
