Surprised that they weren't doing it sooner; and even more surprised there's an opt out option at all. I don't know why they don't just do it illegally, considering laws are just business expenses at this point; especially for someone like elon.

You assume the opt out button actually does something.
obviously the opt out button does nothing
Obviously they were already doing this through cheq.ai
I was thinking about my Reddit account. How it's really old and has tens of thousands of mean, cranky ass bad takes, half of which are probably not true or I wrote when I was high, depressed, or stressed about events beyond my control.
Those are all getting scraped by Google right now to be rolled up into the permenant knowledge base of their next massive AI model. You're welcome!
I too contributed to the reddit edgelord model, probably some of my life's greatest work
I hope you’re feeling better these days!
Oh, I'm okay, thank you. The op comment is intentionally hyperbolic to help drive home the point.
Cheer's on calling it Twitter
Ugh, too many pixels, please tone it down
They trying to out do Microsoft's racist bot?
Microsoft should bring it back for memes
Anyone who cared would already be off Twitter.
It is the Year of our Lord two thousand twenty-four, and people are still using Elon's dumpster fire of a pro-Nazi website. Why?
Social lock-in
Good luck with all the inane shitposts.
This will be Tay all over again.
Tay didn't start out a Nazi
Okay then this one has a headstart then :)
Most hateful AI ever.
