ChatGPT will now predict your age based on how you interact with it

It seems now #openai is doing age estimation too based on this email I received,

After Google who made the “Age signals API” into Android phones, now OpenAI will “predict your age based on how you interact with our services”.

No, I don’t want #chatgpt to analyze my age, thank you very much, (I always used the privage chat mode anyways, whatever impact it actually has on the data they use), so I will now switch to an alternative that doesn’t do that : https://chat.mistral.ai/

Don’t misunderstand me, protecting children is a good idea, but if that implies having to be analyzed by an #AI and having your experience change based on that, I’m heavily against it.

Although it’s convenient, if it starts analyzing my behaviour as well then I guess it will be a good time to start thinking a bit more on my own and only rely on AI as a last resort solution…

        It gets worse until the bubble pops is the idea, which I personally don’t think it will for the US.

          Do you mean the AI bubble won’t pop? Currently that seams very unlikely, AI is entirely propped up by investors and they aren’t generating any real profit from consumers. Literally the definition of an unsustainable market.

            No, what is meant is that “as long is the AI bubble it will get worse, then it gets better”.
            And to that I say “It won’t get any better after the bubble pops”.

            There’s simply no incentive in the US from the left side to change anything that I think needs to change and instead has it’s priorities on things that I don’t think will help the underlying issues at all.

              Well welcome to US politics I guess.

              Also I think things will get better after the AI bubble pops, there will be less AI overhype and AI shoe horning into everything. ram prices will go down, GPU prices will go down and therefore most consumer tech items will also go down.
