> Additionally, LG has a setting called "Live Plus" that Reddit users highlighted. When it's turned on, the TV can recognize what's displayed on screen and use that viewing information for personalized recommendations and ads. LG describes it as an "enhanced viewing experience,"

Ah. So it's not "AI." It's an "opportunity to spy on every single thing you do."

Those are completely separate. "Live Plus" is a TV setting that has nothing to do with Copilot and has been on their TVs for a long time.

    It's not just LG! They keep trying to shove "a return channel" into the latest ATSC standards for DRM and "enhanced / more accurate ratings".

    And how long is a "long time", Mr. "It's old and boring that TV manufacturers do this so there's no point in being angry or complaining"?

      Of course you can be angry at whoever you want, but it seems more productive to be angry at the entity actually causing the thing you dislike.

Every AI company is doing the same thing, there is nothing special about Microsoft in this instance. If you're using a 3rd party provider for your queries you can assume it is going to end up in the training corpus.
