Earlier this year I thought that rare proprietary knowledge and IP was a safe haven from AI, since LLMs can only scrub public data.

Using an LLM on data does not ingest that data into the training corpus. LLMs don’t “learn” from the information they operate on, contrary to what a lot of people assume.

None of the mainstream paid services ingest operating data into their training sets. You will find a lot of conspiracy theories claiming that companies are saying one thing but secretly stealing your data, of course.

The enterprise user agreement is preventing this.

Suggesting that AI companies will uniquely ignore the law or contracts is conspiracy theory thinking.

Though the porn they copied was just for personal use, because clearly that's an important perk of being employed there:
