If fatuous but famous people are doing things, you get no points for posting, "Okay, I'll bite, who are they?" Yes yes, you're very fancy for not knowing, but I'm not going to make it my problem to explain things to you.

All the attachments? Like, the contents of files that we send?
Google just changed its settings so that it is reading all of your mail, and all of the attachments to your mail, in order to train its LLM. It does not ask your consent. If you turn it off your inbox becomes unusable.

I'm enraged but I don't know what to do.

"doodidees" = blueberries with the consonant cluster simplified and onsets substituted with [d], both very common features of child language acquisition. Any SLP or preschool teacher could tell you that, but sure, we need to "leverage AI" to figure it out.

One time I spent five minutes at lunch drawing a reverse centaur and it became one of my most retweeted pieces of art. I resented that so I deleted it but now it can be free again because not enough people follow me on here for it to go big
