not just that: another, for example, will be to give the ability for any user to remove his/her data (and also to be able to download). Then some more: I don't think OpenAI will have problems implement it, they are probably just late. But the big issue may be another one (I hope to be wrong): if I train my model with the contributions of many users, then some users ask me to remove their 'contribution', am I able to…

Yes: just remove that user's data from the training set, throw out the existing model and train from scratch on the modified training set. As for the more interesting question if you can modify an existing model in a simple way: probably not. But you might get away with just dropping any response containing snippets of the contribution to be expunged, and that is hopefully good enough for the regulator.

I am also writing from Italy. In the last few months I have received so many spam calls from UK numbers that I have been forced to ban the whole of Britain from my phone. Good job Data Protection authority.

In the US, I used to receive multiple spam calls a day. A few years ago, I turned on the iOS setting that sends all phone numbers not in my contacts straight to voicemail and haven't looked back. It's occasionally inconvenient—maybe once or twice a year I deal with a company that needs to call me. But if it's a call from a real person, I can always listen to the voicemail and call them back. Most spam calls either do…

I'm an American that have been living in Europe for 15 months. My perspective is that Europe is ruled by old aristocracy that is happy with the way the life is. They're very afraid of any change, especially of giving people something constructive to do on a large scale. Another reason might be that Europe went through the two World wars, and therefore they're generally scared of any change.

Yeah everything is geared towards the aristocracy - like VAT and Income Tax are insanely high meanwhile there is often no land value tax, property tax, inheritance tax, wealth tax or gift tax at all. And even capital gains are taxed far less than income. I think it's more that the US was made up of immigrants so it got to start anew without a massive established aristocracy and monarchies.

This does not surprise me at all. I worked in Italy for 2 years and in Germany for 4 years. A sense of `US/CIA/NSA-phobia` is strong among many companies and is often used to justify not using US datacenters, cloud-services and SaaS tools. I have to admit I do not fully understand it, but I am inclined to think it is mostly a bias and not driven by actual risk assessments. Having conducted risk assessments and threat…
