Really frustrating that our privacy eroded to the point anyone would think this is reasonable.

But it does explain some conversations with Gemini when I wonder why it's talking about particular things. Like asking it about consultation processes for changes to parks only to get a response that's uncannily tuned to the email I got prompting the enquiry.

No mention of I just read your emails etc .

I had a Google Meet Gemini transcription take well over 24hours once recently, rather than the usual <1hr. I could only assume manual intervention was the cause.

It might also explain why Google do not provide a page to view transcription job queues from meet. You just have to sit and wonder

These things make my blood boil!

Unfortunately, the alternatives are all so bad...

Is anybody surprised? Cat was let out of the bag with those mathies who chatted up AI and then AI stole their thunder.

Guess this is another reason to migrate to local LLMs ASAP.
