They can't. They need to transcribe the data.
- RosanaAnaDana 7y ago^This. I'm sure they're optimizing to only transcribe data they are pretty confident they got wrong (multiple requests; use has to go in and correct), but if you want software to do what the Google Home software does, you have to do this.
- saagarjha 7y agoThere are a lot of things that Google could have done better in this situation without meaningfully impacting their software's quality.
- RosanaAnaDana 7y agoI guess. I'm still not of the opinion anything being done here is really 'wrong' (unless the annotators are mis-using the data).
- natch 7y agoNot true. Apple has demonstrated how to do it and has published a paper on the topic. A. Bhowmick et al. Protection Against Reconstruction and Its Application in Private Federated Learning, 2018. Don’t just dismissively say “oh that’s different and doesn’t apply” until you read it and understand the range of problems Apple is tackling with this and similar approaches. A lot can be done when the organization makes privacy a priority. Let’s not forget I am replying to a person who has chosen to use a throwaway account for this topic. Why did they do that? Hmmm.
