Comment on Amazon Is Using Your Conversations With Alexa to Train AI
EnderMB@lemmy.world 1 year agoI work for Amazon.
This has been the case for many years. Amazon has used AI in Alexa and other services for many years as primary providers, and has told it’s users it’s used it’s data for as long. We’re talking from close to inception here, so 6-7 years, at least. Hell, LLM’s aren’t even new to most big tech companies!
I’m all for privacy, but if you want privacy then you probably shouldn’t have a fucking tin can in your house that actions every conversation to a cloud service!

Not every conversation, just statements following a detected wake word.

You trust that?

Considering I set up one of the content types that relates to wakeword and utterance text analysis for Alexa, I trust it completely.

But can I trust you? Are you willing to share the source code?
