Google has released a new privacy policy update, and with it, the platform announced that it'll scrape everything people post online for its AI tools. Here's what the new Google privacy policy says.

“Google uses information to improve our services and to develop new products, features and technologies that benefit our users and the public... For example, we use publicly available information to help train Google’s AI models and build products and features like Google Translate, Bard, and Cloud AI capabilities.”

The update to the privacy policy changes the current policy, which outlines how online could be used to power its upcoming AI tool. As highlighted, the platform said that the data would be for its "language model" instead of specifying that it was for its "AI models."

The new update includes Bard and Cloud AI on top of the mention of Google Translate, which was previously the only service mentioned.

Recently, comedian Sarah Silverman filed copyright infringement lawsuits against Meta and OpenAI. The lawsuit against both platforms was regarding how they used data from her book to train the AI model.

At the start of the year, AI art company Stability AI reportedly received a lawsuit from Getty Images regarding copyrighted image use. The allegations were taht the AI art service committed copyright infringement.
