That's really clever. (And the people pissed off aren't potential customers anyway.)

These AI apologists are deranged.

Start taking your privacy back. Use aliases and throwaways whenever possible. https://addy.io/ is free and allows you to create lots of aliases and then delete them later.

while i share the sentiment, the ai model here isn't looking to harvest email ids. their model is to harvest the content of email messages and summarise them into a list of "a citizen's most pressing concerns".

aliases will not allay the qualms of such a service.

The potential customers here are whatever companies they inevitably sell the data and product to down the road.

As far as I can tell, almost no one is a potential A.I. customer. Devs use GitHub Copilot but it’s not a game changer or anything.

I’m not an A.I. hater. I think it’ll eventually bring great medical advancements and prove valuable. I just think it’s overhyped for average consumers. I don’t think it’s going to be something as revolutionary as smartphones or even Snake on Nokia phones. To me, it feels like a “nice to have” tech more than “essential” tech. And the downsides are considerable. I don’t suspect any Sci Fi shit will happen but making spammers more efficient isn’t worth the carbon footprint.

Which arguably is a decent use case for it. As it is there's some stranger or in-between going through them for the same reason, at best. And most likely then just putting them into categories, not actually applying any sort of analysis whatsoever for most governments or politicians that receive those emails.

but you don't understand! just one more model bro. seriously, just one more training and we'll have it bro.

bro. bro. bro! just one more model to train.

please, bro. please.

Should send it an email that links it into an infinite maze of useless information.

is free

What is their business model?
