I rarely expect politicians to be competent about tech stuff, but Warren absolutely nails it here! She correctly identifies an actual problem with AI: it gets people to feed private information to a data hungry company.

"Google already possesses unprecedented troves of user search and AI chat data, and such intimate data could be merged with both user data from other Google services and third-party retailer data to drive consumer behavior in an exploitative manner,” Warren writes, while also questioning whether Google will prioritize shopping results from retail partners over competitors.

No AI apocalypse nonsense, despite the number of well-funded nonprofits that are pushing that narrative. Just the same cold hard facts that were true before the LLM craze kicked off.
