Your Chatbot Keeps a File on You

Try this: Log in to ChatGPT or Meta AI and type, "roast me based on my chat history." If it knows you well enough to skewer you, that is one sign it is time to lock down your artificial intelligence privacy. 

Most AI companies keep a file on everything you say to their bots. Your words, pictures, clicks and ideas help make their AI smarter. They use it to personalize bot responses so you stick around longer. And your chats fuel their other businesses, too: This week, Meta is starting to use what you share with its bot to target you with ads on Instagram and Facebook.

The links and photos below will take you directly to what to change for OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic’s Claude, Microsoft’s Copilot, Google’s Gemini and the Meta AI.
