reworkal

yeah the big tech companies approached our company to buy our private codebases and data for training purposes. I advised we do not sell anything to them because their goal isn't just to try to replace our workers with bots, the real goal is to replace our entire business. There will be one mega corp to rule them all.

Just think, if they can sell your a virtual worker that can compete with human employees in your industry/niche, they would be a few steps away from being your DIRECT competitor or at the very least selling those same workers to someone else.

you are assuming they got it through the regular internet

It's funny to remember that the legal definition of something is almost never aligned with how the technology actually works.

Like for instance the legal definition for "encryption at rest" is often wildly different than what a customer thinks that means, what an average SRE think it means, and what a cryptologist thinks it means.

All those regulations like GDPR mean nothing if I can convince a random judge or regulator that an apple is actually an orange.

These technologies are moving so fast that it makes sense why there a lag in understanding and any real attempts at regulating agaists the negative effects.
