I'm rather curious to see how the EU's privacy laws are going to handle this.

You do know being LGBT+ in many places is illegal, right? And can even carry the death penalty.

Legality is not important and we should not care if it’s considered legal or not, because what’s legal isn’t what’s right or ethical.

    Yes I am aware of that. However, I'm not sure how this has anything to do with the fact that it is also illegal to steal data, then continue to use said data to make profits after having been found out. The two are not connected in any logical way, which makes it hard for me to continue to address your concerns in a way that makes sense.

    The way I see it, you're either completely missing what we're talking about, or you have some misunderstanding of what the AI language models actually are, and what they can do.

    For the record, I'm in no way disagreeing with your views, or your statements that legal and ethical don't always overlap. It is clear to me that you are open minded and well-intended, which I appreciate, and I hope you don't take this the wrong way.
