Absolutely unbelievable but here we are. #Slack by default using messages, files etc for building and training #LLM models, enabled by default and opting out requires a manual email from the workspace owner. https://slack.com/intl/en-gb/trust/data-management/privacy-principles What a time to be alive in IT. 🤦‍♂️

        Unfortunately corporate security is a joke in many aspects.

        there is a type of leader out there that takes gartner magic quadrants seriously and makes decisions from that information

        and they’re not rare.

          I’ve done UX on a few B2B SaaS things and the U meant CTO in most (sanctioned) cases
