Google confirms its latest update can scan all your photos to “use actual images of you and your loved ones” in AI image generation. That means Gemini seeing who you know and what you do. You likely have tens or hundreds of thousands of photos. They’re all exposed if you update.

Impossibly difficult is an oxymoron. If something is impossible, it can't be difficult because if it is difficult that means its very hard to achieve but still possible. If something is impossible, that means you cannot do it, full stop. It is not possible. Those are two completely different things.
