Tough to say goodbye to the different tabs in my gmail but if that's what I have to do to not have that AI slop feeding off my words, then so be it.

Also means I'll be unsubscribing to a LOT more stuff now. Good job, gmail!

It's good to be skeptical but I trust Malwarebytes on this:
www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/20...
And this seems to point towards training AIs:
support.google.com/mail/answer/...
"When smart features are on, your data may be used to improve these features"
Gmail can read your emails and attachments to train its AI, unless you opt out
A new Gmail update may allow Google to use your private messages and attachments for AI training. Here's how to turn it off.

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.

Star Trek is always so relatable. I’m human and I also don’t have any money…

As it gets colder, please remember to NEVERRR plug a space heater into a power strip, which are not designed to handle the high current flow and can overheat or even catch fire! Directly into the wall outlet ONLY!

85 degree middle of November days really suck. And that's all I have to say about that.

I'm at the Target boycott, I'm at the Starbucks boycott, I'm at the combination Target boycott and Starbucks boycott
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.

The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

If you get to a trillion dollars you should have to start the game over from the beginning at a higher difficulty like your parents not owning a bunch of emerald mines or whatever idk that’s just a random example
