Maybe they can check people like me that deleted on their reddit posts and comments.. See if the AI can see all that "removed" content :P
I can tell you with near certainty there's a backup somewhere of the pre-exodus database with all those deleted accounts and comments intact.
Oh I am sure there's a backup. I guess I'm interested in whether they're actually using it or not.
I know I'm in super-cynic mode this morning, but my guess is they finished training on all the data to that point already, so it's probably not online anywhere currently, but also probably 100% a part of whatever training they are doing. Again, IMO only, and rampant speculation.
Though frankly, all that is worrying me a lot less now that I realize Doge took all the info that any identity thief could possibly want about every citizen in the US (and more), plus whatever classified info they have, and Putin is probably months into Russia's analysis and training on every last bit of that data. (or there was a recent dead drop in Alaska 🤔 )
Guess that'd be another safe bet. They had be silly not to.
