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

It's not just about having permission or not, but the right to be forgotten. You can ask a company to delete the personal data they may have on you and by law they should (in theory) delete it, with the only exception being data that may be required for justified purposes.

AIs not being able to "forget" means that they would be breaking the law if trained with personal data, as you could not have your data removed if you ask them to do so.
