GDPR change lets companies train AI on Europeans' personal data without consent

EU governments approved a change to the GDPR that would let companies train AI models on Europeans' personal data without consent by treating AI training as a possible "legitimate interest" judged case by case, according to International Cyber Digest. The measure still requires agreement from the European Parliament. Privacy activist Max Schrems called the change a "digital expropriation" of Europeans.
