A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Any competent IT would be able to monitor a systems communications. It might not be able to see what is being sent depending on encryption, but if it's trying to phone home you can see it. It might be through a vpn, or something built into a server, but it's still there, and you can configure the intranet to prevent the out bound communication from it's system.

Pretty much the standard for hospitals and DoD contractors. Honestly I'm not aware of any entities without their own private network capable of this.

I didn't say it was impossible to do. I said it's a convenient explanation to stop people from asking more questions. Companies could say (and I would bet good money that a non-zero amount of them are saying) they are doing this without actually doing it.
