Can you control it?
Sometimes
Sometimes. Your choices depend on the tool and your access. The settings available to an everyday user may differ from those available to the people running it.
Common questions
- Is permission to store data the same as permission to train on it?
- Not necessarily. The purposes and terms can differ.
- Can permission be limited to certain material?
- Yes. An agreement may cover particular information, people or purposes rather than everything submitted.
- Does withdrawing permission erase past learning automatically?
- No. Stopping future use and removing earlier influence from an AI system are different tasks.
