Google’s AI assistant is about to get full access to your calls, texts, and WhatsApp — even if you’ve disabled activity tracking.

I hear you, it’s the same reason why I still have google maps in my e/OS phone, to see my history and give me more restaurants I can try.

But the compromise in my case and what everyone in this thread also knows is that the data you share will not only be yours.

I think no one here is against a powerful AI assistant that will help is with personal stuff and keeping track of everything, but having to share all your life with someone else is a huge fuck no. They would know way more than even your life partner.

If there was something mostly offline that we could use I think we’d be all up for it.
