I don't think Google would want the PR hit for doing such things. I suspect that they even have hang-ups about training their general-purpose AIs on your private data, because they might accidentally leak some of it. A lot of their business exists because people trust them to keep your data safe (even from their internal teams), and they would lose a lot of business if anyone discovered otherwise.

I think it will be a wild couple of years but there are lots of things that are off-limits.



Instead Google would just by a "person score" much like we already buy credit scores from third party companies with questionable data use policies.

Google gets to wash its hands of the data responsibility, but all the same negative issues for the user is still there.
