Your boss is building your replacement. And your therapist might testify against you
The Kim Komando ShowShow Notes
After cutting 8,000 jobs, Meta told its remaining employees something jaw-dropping: every keystroke you type at work is being recorded. Why? To train the AI that could replace you. If that doesn't make you put down your coffee, this will. Your AI therapy chats? Not as private as you think. They could be read back to you in a courtroom.
Kim Komando breaks it all down, plus the tech stories affecting your money, your privacy, and your life right now.
