Logo of Seek. On the left is a medium-blue circle with a white arrow that points to the right. The arrow is made of a number of small, white circles. On the right is the logotype that says "seek" in a black, sans serif font. It's a proper noun, so should have the first letter capitalised, but it's styled all in lower-case. This is different to a previous version of the logotype, which was styled in all-caps. The changed happened years ago but they still use the all-caps version in practically every text-based instance on the Seek website.

   Seek has copied a recent change LinkedIn made, and has decided to use your personal data for AI training. Presumably, this includes your CV / Resume / professional work history and other private information.

   The fine print in the Privacy Policy says they're going to use your data for Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning. The outgoing version of the Privacy Policy makes no mention of AI / ML. It's happening to all users / customers by default, there's no opt-out, and if you disagree with the change then they tell you to delete your account.

   The announcement came in an innocuous-looking email about updates to the Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions that will happen on the 31st of October 2024. This affects people in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand. But, not in the EU, where they have laws against this sort of thing.
