Then you are free to consent to that. You are not permitted, on the other hand, to presume that consent from every other person on the planet which is what these companies have done and continue doing.
That's it. Just ask. Just asking the damn question solves 99% of the ethical issues people raise about this tech, ask, and it's done. But they won't, because they know damn well a whole lot of people are going to say no. Far too many for it to be viable tech.
This is so simple and the pro-AI people just willfully prevent their understanding of it. You do not get to trample the rights of everyone on the planet just to make a thing. You just don't. We won't even take perfectly good organs from dead people who didn't volunteer them before they died to help people. If it was impossible to fully sequence the human genome without a DNA sample from every living person, and one person in the south of England is too afraid of needles to give it up, then you don't get to do that fella, irrespective of how good it might be to do. No matter how useful it might be.
This is like, the base ethics involved in any and all science, apart from AI apparently.
