The FTC Forced a Misbehaving A.I. Company to Delete Its Algorithm
- theamk 6y agoThe AI company in question was “Ever” which apparently gave the users the option to opt out of their photos used for AI training - and then used photos for training even if users opted out. The problem was deception, not AI itself. Unfortunately the companies would probably make a wrong conclusion here: don’t offer people opportunities to opt out of specific things, instead force them to accept blanket statements like “your photos will be anonymously used for the product development and enhancement by this and affiliated companies”. It’s not like people read EULAs very carefully.
