Data brokers are collecting internal corporate files to help train AI models, according to WIRED. The report says the practice is making some people uneasy.
Why it mattersThat raises a practical question for businesses: where might their work files end up once they leave the company’s systems? The supplied account does not identify the brokers or explain how the files are obtained, so the details matter. AI training data has an unglamorous supply chain, and this one deserves daylight.
Discuss: Should companies have to disclose when their internal files may be used to train AI models, even if the files are gathered through third parties?
