If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."
There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

If the AI bubble really is bursting, please take this lesson from it:
Nothing marketed to you this relentlessly is ever worth it. If it was, they wouldn’t need to beg you.

Mental health is not your fault, but it is your responsibility. The world doesn't reshape itself around you to accommodate every choice you make
And do keep in mind, every action taken is a *choice*: "I punched someone because I was soooo angry" is a choice, even if you felt swept up by emotions

I think that one of the worst mental health repercussions on the internet was the 2010s 'self-care' culture of "any selfish thing you do for yourself must be respected and if it's not respected they're not your friends"
You can feel however you feel, but your *actions* will have consequences
