You can watch enshittification of services happen in nearly real time. In just the past five years we've seen a number of services (Reddit, Twitter, etc) update their T&Cs granting themselves the ability to dump all the platform's contents into AI training. The end of ZIRP (free money) has seen tech companies chasing profit over growth and increasing squeezing users and rent seeking.
In light of all that it's hardly "chicken littling" to assume that hosted AI chat bots can't be trusted with intimate and personal details. The companies running them should be seen as inherently untrustworthy.
