Genshin Impact's Privacy Policy indicated players' voice comms data may be used to train AI models

Genshin Impact's privacy policy previously disclosed that players' voice communication data could be used to train AI models. HoYoverse quietly removed this clause from the policy after it was spotted by users. The policy allowed opt-out through service settings. HoYoverse has been transparent about using generative AI in upcoming projects, including an Unreal Engine 5 MMO with AI-driven systems.
