Am I the only one who doesn't like the idea of having AI built into my phone. Seems very dystopian to me
I mean I absolutely want it but also understand your apprehension.
I mean imagine every person having a personal assistant in their pocket who can draft emails on your behalf based on other emails in your inbox, remind you of things without actually creating a reminder, fill out forms for you, answer texts for you, write software for you, create automations for you, etc. etc. I mean the possibilities are endless for increased productivity.
On the other hand, in order to do those things, they have to have access to just about everything, which is scary to me, personally. But I think the vast majority have made it clear they don't give a single shit about privacy.
I absolutely see the benefits of having AI for those reasons. But like you say, it needs to know way too much to accomplish this and as long as AI is owned by already data hungry corporations then I don't feel comfortable using AI for personal use. And some may not care about privacy, but there are many people who simply do not know the risks involved in allowing AI to have this kind of access.
