I'm rather curious to see how the EU's privacy laws are going to handle this.

Much like DLLs exist for compiled binary executables, could we not have modular AI training data? Then only a small chunk would need to be relearned at a time.

Just throwing this into the void here.

    The difference in between having or not something in the training set of a Neural Network is going to be different values for non-integer factors all over the neural network and, worse, it is just as like that they're tiny differences as it is that they're massive differences.

    Or to give you a decent metaphor for it, "it would be like trying to remove a specific egg from a bowl of scrambled eggs".
