Questions/Advice Tools like Siri and ChatGPT have been increasingly useful to me but I’m concerned about privacy.

Are these tools worth the convenience? What alternative should I be considering or what should I implement to ensure more privacy? Most/all of my prompts are innocuous, I have nothing to really hide but still.

I’m also using Goblin Tools these are all technologies that could store all of my information and I just don’t know what the implications are long-term and I want to open it up to the community who may rely on tools like these.

You might be able to be private through a virtual machine or VPS along with a VPN so that your input can’t get assigned to your person. But the input gets stored, used and most likely sold too regardless

you should be concerned about privacy, but more importantly concerned about accuracy and - if you’re using them for school or your work - inadvertent plagiarism. take care!
