alt Hacker NewsThe reply about knowledge about their job and familt made me think.
The only thing I can now think of is using it as a personal therapist. Or asking how to approach their kids. And they're a bit embarrassed about it, because it's still outside the Overton window -especially on HN - which is why they aren't sharing it.
If someone has different usecases, please do prove me wrong! Maybe I just lack imagination.

I recently asked about baby-led weaning. If my baby were 2 months old, it would have been smart to mention "not yet!" but it knows she's 8 months old and was able to give contextual advice.
I ask gpt a lot of questions about plants and gardening - I’m happy that it remembers where I live and understands the implications. I could remind it in every question, but this is convenient.
Such an incredible amount of personal, intimate knowledge to share with a company. Sure, Google can figure out where I live and who I visit because I have an Android phone, but they'll never know the contents of those relationships.
I have a line in the sand with the AI vendors. It's a work relationship. If I wouldn't share it with a colleague I didn't know super well, I'm not telling it to a AI vendor.
