"Chiedere i dati che #ChatGPT ha raccolto su di me a OpenAI è stata un'impresa. Ed è andata peggio del previsto

Abbiamo provato a esercitare il diritto di accesso ai dati previsto dal #Gdpr nei confronti di #OpenAI. In risposta abbiamo ottenuto una matassa di dati senza senso."

Altro che #Report... Microsoft ha fornito all'FBI le chiavi per sbloccare i dati crittografati, rivelando una grave falla nella privacy
