Not really. In fact it might suggest something I'm specifically more worried about. Datasets that we use in research aren't really appropriate in production. They have a lot of biases that we don't exactly care about in research but you do in production that can also get you into a lot of political and cultural trouble. So really if they are going to just use public datasets and not create their own then I expect a substantially low performance, potential trouble ahead, and I'm concerned about who is running their machine learning operations.
I liked the clarity of response. Public models, not user data seems a clear answer to your question?

Appreciate the detail here. Given your relevant experience sounds like something that the devs need to address.
