What AI companies know about you that you never told them, per Claude

A screenshot of Claude (Opus 5.5 High) answering "What do AI companies know about people that they never told them?": health worries from dosage questions, rent trouble from landlord messages, names and cities from pasted screenshots. Over months, chats build a picture of your money, relationships and fears — and can be kept, read by staff, and used for training. Claude's advice: assume anything typed into a chatbot sits on a computer you don't control; run a local model for private things.
