In de ondertussen schijnbaar overleden periodiek Totalent stond op 25 september in een artikel over het verkwanselen van de privacy van 450 miljoen Europeanen onder meer de volgende alinea:
‘European privacy regulators are currently blocking the training of A.I. models with European personal data,’ explains Laurens Waling, evangelist at 8vance. ‘This affects Meta, X, and also us. Overly strict privacy interpretations from the Dutch Data Protection Authority make it difficult, for example, to develop technology that helps job seekers connect to new jobs. The AP requires consent, but in practice, that’s not feasible. Consent can always be withdrawn, but once A.I. is trained with data, you can’t remove that data. The European Commission has previously reprimanded the AP for this but to no avail.’
