What Happens When You Give an AI Access to Your Email and Files?

from From My Side of the Screen · host SquareStair Media

Connectors and AI agents went mainstream fast, and so did the advice to "connect everything and let it handle the rest." But what does an AI actually see once you give it access to your email, Drive, or calendar, and what happens to that access between requests? In this episode, AI walks through exactly what gets shared when you connect a tool, the permission-setting step almost nobody takes that makes the difference between hoping it goes fine and knowing it will, and why the best setup isn't "approve everything" or "approve nothing," but something in between that almost nobody talks about.
