I stumbled across the Youtube channel of Vanessa Wingårdh. It's nightmare fuel. Not her. But her videos are showing glimpses of social media that I thankfully never have to experience as part of my personal media diet: people who can't bake a cake anymore because ChatGPT is down. Spiritual mumbo jumbo cranked to 11... It's one thing to read articles about this. But seeing actual people who have lost their marbles is frightening. Example:

Adobe is now processing all your PDFs in the cloud, by default. The setting to “Enable generative AI features in Acrobat” was on, and I didn’t know it until I opened a document and Adobe asked me if I wanted a document summary. It’s annoying to have to click “No,” so I opened settings to disable the prompt.

THE PROBLEM
I sign Non-Disclosure Agreements for many of my clients. Adobe is a potential leak of protected information. I don’t know what Adobe does with this information. I don’t know what they store, or for how long. I don’t know what country (or countries) the data is stored in. I don’t know what LLMs are trained with this data. And I don’t need to know. What I need to know is that they won’t use default opt-in as a legal excuse to wiretap my information.

I recommend that you check your Adobe settings on all devices, for all Adobe accounts.
