A professional asked for a human and got 'good enough' AI instead - that's where privacy programs start to fail.

Episode Summary

In this episode of Privacy Perspectives, host Jodi Daniels breaks down why "good enough" AI is quietly eroding privacy programs and customer trust.

You'll learn AI's staggering environmental cost, why consumer trust in AI content is falling, and how to spot when a "good enough" privacy notice doesn't match your actual data practices.

Question of the Day

Where in your privacy program would "good enough" scare you the most - your data inventory, your vendor reviews, your incident response plan, or somewhere else? Drop it in the comments.

Key Take-aways

• AI data centers use as much electricity as 100,000 households and 5 million gallons of water daily
• Consumer trust in AI-generated content dropped from 78% to 58% in just two years
• A generic AI privacy notice checks a compliance box but may not reflect your real data practices
• Erin Brockovich launched a website mapping AI data centers across the U.S.
• Privacy work is deeply human - it requires judgment, context, and curiosity AI can't replicate
