DOES it ever feel like you’re “talking” to Google or ChatGPT?
The disarming use of our everyday language leads many of us to treat these tools as though they were a magic mirror connected only to our keyboard. For example, when we “ask Google” or “check ChatGPT”, it tricks us into thinking these tools are private – but they aren’t private, at all.
It’s easy to forget that both Google and ChatGPT are connected to enormous databases, run by complex algorithms and employ deep data analytics. The average user likely would not consider that real people will almost certainly see whatever is typed into those harmless-looking search bars.
