If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."
There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

🚨 New preprint! 🚨
Everyone loves causal interp. It’s coherently defined! It makes testable predictions about mechanistic interventions! But what if we had a different objective: predicting model behavior not under mechanistic interventions, but on unseen input data?

Hundreds of international students have just received an email telling them their visas have been revoked.
The ‘justification’ is campus activism or social media posts.
