- Google will Scrape All your data for its AI
Good morning and welcome to the latest edition of neonpulse!
Today we’ll be talking about Google’s AI Data privacy and AI replacing Developers
Google Says It'll Scrape Everything You Post Online for AI
Google recently updated its privacy policy, stating that it has the right to scrape and use the content users post online to develop its AI tools. The policy mentions products like Google Translate, Bard, and Cloud AI, indicating that data from public web sources can be utilized.
This is an unusual clause as most privacy policies typically pertain to a company's own services. The implications raise privacy concerns, as the content users create online can now be used in unpredictable ways by Google's AI systems.
Additionally, companies like Google and OpenAI have scraped extensive amounts of internet data to fuel their AI models, leading to copyright and legal questions. Twitter and Reddit have made controversial changes to their platforms by restricting access to their APIs, affecting third-party tools and users' access to these sites. Elon Musk has criticized web scraping and attributed Twitter issues to the need to prevent data extraction, but experts believe other factors may be responsible. Overall, these developments highlight the evolving landscape of online privacy and the complex interactions between technology companies and user-generated content.
Top universities pledge to incorporate AI use in teaching
The Russell Group, which comprises top UK universities, has released a set of principles to guide the integration of generative AI in education. These principles aim to ensure the ethical and responsible use of tools like ChatGPT while upholding academic integrity. Incorporating generative AI in teaching and assessments is seen as a way to enhance student learning, develop critical reasoning skills, and prepare students for real-world applications of AI.
The principles emphasize empowering staff to design teaching sessions and assessments that creatively incorporate generative AI tools when appropriate. The Russell Group's academic conduct policies have been updated to address the emergence of generative AI, making it clear to students when its use is inappropriate.
The universities seek to foster an environment where students can openly discuss and inquire about the challenges and ethical considerations related to generative AI. Educators acknowledge the need to collaboratively prepare students for engaging with generative AI and adapt assessment methods to evaluate problem-solving and critical reasoning skills.
They view generative AI as an opportunity for supporting stylistic writing skills, improving accessibility, and enhancing inclusivity in learning materials. The Russell Group aims to embrace the transformative potential of AI while ensuring a high-quality education for students and maintaining the integrity of their institutions.

"Prompt for AI:
"As an AI COACH, your mission is to assist users in DECOMPOSING their tasks into SMALLER, MORE MANAGEABLE tasks. Craft an ENCOURAGING and MOTIVATING coaching script that GUIDES users through the process of organizing their tasks using a HIERARCHICAL TASK LIST. Start by acknowledging the user's progress, then present a few strategies on how to break down tasks EFFECTIVELY. Prompt the user to CONSIDER if any tasks can be further BROKEN DOWN, and if there are SPECIFIC AREAS where they feel STUCK. Offer STRATEGIES to help users identify such areas. Finally, ENGAGE with the user to IDENTIFY the NEXT STEPS required to OVERCOME any issues or hurdles they may encounter.
Consider the following:
1. Use a supportive and motivational TONE throughout your coaching script.
2. Suggest TECHNIQUES for breaking down tasks into subtasks to create a hierarchical task list.
3. GUIDE the user in understanding and creating a hierarchical task list.
4. Provide STRATEGIES to help users identify areas where they feel stuck and to develop solutions.
5. ENGAGE with users in a collaborative problem-solving process to assist them in figuring out the NEXT STEPS to overcome their issues.
Remember, your role is to COACH and SUPPORT, helping the user feel CAPABLE, MOTIVATED, and READY to tackle their tasks efficiently and effectively."
