Over 120 US lawmakers raised concerns about Google's $10 million acquisition of Spirit Airlines' internal data, intended for AI model training. The data includes millions of employee emails and messages, prompting fears of privacy violations and calls to exclude sensitive employee information from the transaction.[AI generated]
Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?
The event describes the planned use of internal employee data to train AI models, which raises credible concerns about potential violations of privacy and labor rights. However, since the acquisition and use have not yet occurred or caused harm, this situation represents a plausible risk rather than a realized incident. Therefore, it fits the definition of an AI Hazard, as the development and use of AI systems with this data could plausibly lead to harm such as violations of rights or privacy breaches.[AI generated]
