>>At the same time, do you really want every conversation you have with your doctor recorded

>Yes. This is what medical records are.

No. Medical records are limited extracts from conversations, which is your doctor and only your doctor is qualified to make, using "semantic analysis applied to your unique situation", not "linguistic probabilistic inference applied to conversation about your situation using token weights averaged over billion unrelated samples"

> It's not like the doctor is talking to you about which anime series are the best. You're talking about your health, your body, your disease, your treatment.

No jokes, no banter, no chit-chat, no complements to doctor's new Tesla?

> It's important to keep track of that.

Same fallacy Meta fell into when started tracking employees' keystrokes and mouse gestures. 90% of my mouse movements are just fidgeting, with no relation to the task at hand - and it is not a crime! But if I knew my mouse fidgeting is being watched, I'll make sure that percentage goes up to 99% - for the LLM which is gonna be trained off it to self-immolate over its NSFW nature.

Hey, I'm agreement with you.

I meant that these limited extracts do need to be recorded, that's all.
