They show a clear pop-up where you choose your setting about whether or not to allow data to be used for training. If you don't choose to share it, it's not used.

I mean I guess if someone blindly clicks through everything and clicks "Accept" without clicking the very obvious slider to turn it off, they could be caught off guard.

Assuming everyone who uses Claude is training their LLMs is just wrong, though.

Telemetry data isn't going to extract your codebase.

"If you don't choose to share it, it's not used"

I am curious where your confidence that this is true, is coming from?

Besides lots of GPU's, training data seems the most valuable asset AI companies have. Sounds like strong incentive to me to secretly use it anyway. Who would really know, if the pipelines are set up in a way, if only very few people are aware of this?

And if it comes out "oh gosh, one of our employees made a misstake".

And they already admitted to train with pirated content. So maybe they learned their lesson .. maybe not, as they are still making money and want to continue to lead the field.
