- →This move underscores the balance between AI advancement and user privacy concerns.
Google is updating how it saves user interactions with its services, including Google Lens, Search Live, and Translate. The new 'Search Services History' setting will store images, audio, and video for AI training, separate from the existing Web & App Activity settings. Users can opt out by turning off the 'Save Media' option. This change is intended to improve Google's AI models and offer personalized recommendations, but it also highlights ongoing concerns about data privacy.
