There’s trust and trust. I have historically trusted Google to act in normal capitalist ways. For example, I trust them not to do things that would immediately lose them huge numbers of corporate customers as soon as the news broke, or get them shut down immediately by regulators in multiple nations. That doesn’t sound like it would cover much, but it does include things like “sell my company’s Google Sheets data to the highest bidder.” I don’t trust LLMs even that far. Is it possible for “agentic AI” to send an email to my competitor with confidential company data attached? Absolutely it’s possible. So no, that statement doesn’t apply to Google as a company nearly as aptly as it applies to an agentic LLM.
