Yup. I'm more paranoid about AI training on my chats than most ppl are. While I use frontier models to do research and to build tools, I've tried to avoid discussing details about my projects (e.g. story worldbuilding) except when using local models like Qwen-27B. Of course this slows down progress and has a real opportunity cost, but it would kill all my motivation if I got "scooped" like that.

I've been paranoid about this forever. Mostly I don't care, bacause the stuff I do for work is nothing important.

I've had some social skills breakthroughs though, which I would like to blog about, but I will never do.

I want to write about this stuff to have a "human" connection - me writing from the depth of my experience, and someone reading, feeling and maybe writing me an email?

It would feel like vomitting if AI would use my writing to give advice to others. I would just hate it.
