Yeah, that makes sense to me (as a somewhat religious meditator). I disagree that a focus on something other than logic is problematic, though. I'd actually argue that all-logic-all-the-time is a sickness.

As a meditator, personally I'm a little sickened by the 'science of meditation.' From my view, meditation is ultimately (or at least often) about doing nothing. Limiting, reducing our judgments and reasoning mind. So applyi

(Been meditating for about 15 years). I don't think the things you're describing are particularly 'superhuman.' I definitely can achieve (if that's the right word -- it's almost certainly not -- how about &#x2

Well maybe Google got specific complaints about this app. It's actually better that they only ban some not all, isn't it?

As someone who makes decisions like the one Google made here at work, sorry, dude, but arguing about it publicly isn't going to change much. Almost certainly Google has received pressure from these countries on this issue and their bus

Sfgate had some stats recently that align with this. Though from what I understand there are more cruise cars than wayno cars on the streets.

hmm, as a person of low technical savvy, do you expect there will be a point at which I can upload a large text file and have you do all the work to let me chat with it? I'd pay for that today if it exists, but can't put a ton of

How large of a dataset can I submit? I have hundreds of thousands of words of text.

This is correct -- the covered entity can de-identify data, or ask the BA to de-identify data. If the BAA says the BA can, then they can.

The law doesn't protect it. HIPAA doesn't apply in that setting. Attorney client privilege is an interesting case. "Privacy issues" is a meaningless phrase to me when divorced from the law. Do you mean, like, ethically c

Imo the law basically says you can do this with PHI: -De-identify it then do whatever you want with it -use it to provide some service for the covered entity, but not for anyone else -enter a special research contract if you want to use it

Haha wow this is a great post. I am a lawyer and you may have solved a problem I recently encountered. So you think this is saying that generic language in the Zoom BAA constitutes permission to de-identify? Are there examples of healthcare

So it's a fear for generative AI specifically. Because there are other AI training examples without this concern present.

Evidence imo that the laws legislators pass mean things, matter, and shouldn't be done without a lot of thinking. It's also potentially an example of a company bigger and more powerful than small governments. Which could lead to p

Curious for users here: why does using your content to train AI bother you? How is it any more scary than using it to advertise to you for example.

I write these policies for my day job and I agree with this.

Looks like they have a separate offering, Zoom for Healthcare that presumably has different terms and conditions. https://blog.zoom.us/answering-questions-about-zoom-healthca...

(I'm the lawyer from the original post) I like that saying, too. But not sure it applies here -- there are huge numbers of lawyers who like talking about 'power structures.' It may have been invented by us. We lawyers invente

I don't really buy this line of thinking. I guess you're adopting the 'Malcolm X' approach versus the 'MLK' approach, but actually, meaningful change in an organization devoid of calling people nasty names and

>I do think it's very funny when people use their own ignorance as evidence for an argument. Your own argument comes from "I think this is fairly evident" (at the top of your post). How is that different from ignorance?

Does that make sense? It doesn't to me. The phrase "power structures" isn't even one most people understand (I'm not sure I do, and I'm a lawyer) so it's hard to believe the hundreds of police organization

I'd believe this article if it were written by Google or an adtech company... But this is iapp, a professional org for privacy professionals. Their understanding of the industry is more limited than we realized.
