Flight attendants seek removal of confidential data in Google AI bid

The dispute centers on whether their confidential information will be deleted before digital records tied to the defunct airline are sold.

Flight attendants are pushing back against Google’s plan to acquire digital records from a defunct airline, arguing that their confidential information must be removed from any sale tied to AI use. The conflict involves the treatment of sensitive data in the company’s records-transfer process.

According to The Wall Street Journal Markets, the attendants are seeking assurances that their information will not be retained or shared as part of the transaction for Google’s AI efforts. They want confirmation that their confidential information will be removed from the data being sold.
