Subject: Re: Is it safe to use Google Gemini?
Wendy,

Anything you get for "free" has a cost attached to it. Gemini is currently offered as a free tool, as are a long list of other AIs. Whether you are using them for research, creation, business streamlining, art or whatever, you can bet your bippie that the requests (and the answers) are being retained for future use - whether for anonymous polling or for personalized targeting down the road. Is this a danger? Is it worth the service? That's a question each of us has to personally answer. It doesn't mean that Gemini will attack you, but it is likely, once AIs reach a quantum leap above where they are now, the information may be used to influence you.

There are a large group of existing legacy and brand new companies spending an awful lot of money. They will ALL be interested in monetizing that expenditure.
