Comment on PSA: Microsoft may be training on your private data without your knowledge

Comments

Microsoft refuted this claim: https://x.com/Microsoft365/status/1861160874993463648

"In the M365 apps, we do not use customer data to train LLMs. This setting only enables features requiring internet access like co-authoring a document." -@Microsoft365

They wouldn't have to combat misinformation if they actually told users what the switches turned on/off instead of vague descriptions that could plausibly allow them to do whatever the hell they want.

Yeah, MS collecting your personal data and using it for whatever they want sounds exactly like a "feature requiring internet access" to me.

your document has gained the following co-authors:

- microsoft

- our 856 trusted third parties
