While I understand this sentiment, some people simply suck at writing nice emails or have a major communication issue. It’s also not bad to run your important emails through multiple edits via AI.

Seems like there are potential privacy issues involved in sharing important emails with these companies, especially if you are sharing what the other person sent as well.

Almost all email these days touches Google's or Microsoft's cloud systems via at least one leg, so arguably, that ship has already sailed, given that they're also the ones hosting the large inference clouds.

Ha, did you see the outrage from people when they realized that them sharing their deepest secrets & company information with ChatGPT was just another business record to OpenAI that is total fair game in any sort of civil suit discovery? You would think some evil force just smothered every little childs pet bunny.

Tell people there are 10000 license plate scanners tracking their every move across the US and you get a mild chuckle, but god forbid someone access the shit they put into some for profit companies database under terms they never read.

If you work in a big enough organization, they have AI sandboxes for things like this.

I'm not surprised the layman doesn't understand how and where their data goes. It's a bit of a let down members in HN seemed surprised by this practice after some 20 years of tech awareness. Many of the community here probably worked in those very databases storing such data.
