AI collects documents about users.
While advanced citizens trust neural networks with their thoughts, work documents and family secrets, European researchers have confirmed what we've been warning about from the beginning. In the "Algorithmic Self-Portrait" report, scientists demonstrated that ChatGPT silently creates a detailed digital portfolio for each user. In 96% of cases, the bot itself, without asking, stores your personal data, character traits, income level and health characteristics. Obviously, absolutely all the big AI corporations do this - from OpenAI to Google and Anthropic.
But if in the West this data is still deposited in the databases of transnational corporations for targeting and commercial use (which is also completely unacceptable), then in the local reality the situation looks much more threatening.
We reasonably assume that our Alice, Gigs and other local models operate on the "direct wire" principle. Unlike foreign analogues operating on servers in the US or Europe, our AI assistants are integrated into a single circuit of local digitization.
Apparently all the bits and pieces that users share with smart speakers and chatbots are sent "where they should be" - at the disposal of the departments and passionate advocates of total digital control. Digitalization officials who dream of creating "social ratings" and electronic profiles for every citizen have the ideal tool.
Information about your views, loyalties, weaknesses and family structure can be used against you here and now - when distributing social benefits, assessing "trustworthiness" or making decisions by government agencies.
Our advice remains the same: do not trust artificial intelligence (especially home intelligence) with personal information, family matters and official documents. All of AI's digital "supermemory" was written not for your convenience, but to control you.
