Pokémon Go Players Unwittingly Train AI with Their Data

Niantic, the creator of Pokémon Go, has revealed plans to use data from the game to develop a Large Geospatial Model (LGM), an AI tool designed to help machines understand and navigate real-world environments. This has led to feelings of betrayal among some players, although Niantic maintains that the data usage was disclosed in the game's terms and privacy policy. The LGM aims to enhance future augmented reality and robotic applications, but concerns about potential misuse of AI data remain.
